This is my papa....it is his birthday

That's what baby AbRam told the guests who walked into Mannat to bring in daddy Shah Rukh Khan's 50th birthday. Highlights from the two-day celebration.

In the last 72 hours, Bandstand has seen plenty of action. It all started in the wee hours of Monday when Shah Rukh Khan fans gathered on the street outside Mannat to bring in the badshah's 50th birthday. They cut cakes, burst firecrackers, and took off their shirts, until the extra police personnel, deployed for the occasion, got into action and drove them away. SRK waved them a quick goodbye but his youngest son AbRam stayed on in the balcony and continued waving until sister Suhana herded him inside where the real party continued till late night.

The celebrations started quietly at midnight with the actor cutting a cake, only wife Gauri and kids, Aryan, Suhana and AbRam in attendance. He and his better half even posed for selfies together.

Later in the night, 30 fans from across the globe got a chance to hang out with their idol. Each have their own SRK fan club, from 'World Ruler Shah Rukh Khan Pakistan' and 'SRK Peru en Espanol' to 'SRK Universe Nigeria', 'SRK Germany' and 'Big Bosnia for King Khan'. They are all registered under one banner, 'I am SRK Universe'.

Early on Monday, SRK drove down to the airport to drop off Aryan and Suhana, who were flying back to school in London. And daddy took a ride in the new "Facebook bus" especially created for his big day, stuffed with presents and little notes from his legions of fans.

The gifts included printed t-shirts, a large Raj puppet from Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, a Quran from the Middle-East, a scrapbook dedicated to the King Khan, painstakingly maintained by a 24-year-old fan and a special performance by a troupe from Russia.

Naturally, his youngest child sulked because no one was giving him any presents.

Daddy had a gift up his sleeve. AbRam who loves high-speed toy cars, received a dozen new one that wiped the frown away. And for the rest of the evening the two year old went around with a huge grin telling everyone who walked in through the doors, "This is my papa. He is an actor. It is his birthday." This included Gauri Khan's parents who flew down from Delhi for their son-in-law's 50th birthday dinner, as also singer Mika Singh and composer Anu Malik, who arrived crooning 'Tujhe dekha toh yeh jaana sanam...' and other hits from SRK's popular films.

The party then shifted to a suburban five-star hotel where an 80-year-old fan, who had flown in from Connecticut after receiving a special invite from King Khan shook a leg to his popular chartbusters. "I had been told no EDM, no dubstep, no English, only my romantic songs from Pardes, Dil Toh Pagal Hai and Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge," DJ Chetas who had flown down from Kolkata, told Mirror.

SRK had his fans in splits with his wisecracks. Addressing the box-office clash of two much-awaited films, Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Bajirao Mastani and Rohit Shetty's Dilwale, he admitted that it felt bad that both films were releasing on the same day and hoped both have a long run. He then deadpanned, "If Deepika is my lucky charm, she will work for me on December 18."

The bash wrapped up at 1 am and SRK headed home to spend some time with his family.

En route, he received a special message from the Bond girl, Italian actress Monica Bellucci, who stars in the latest 007 film, Spectre, "Ah, Bollywood, I can't say anything in Hindi. I can't sing. I can't dance. But, I can romance Shah Rukh Khan. I met him once in Morocco and he is a really kind-hearted man. I am glad that I met him and have immense respect for him. Happy Birthday."

The birthday wishes didn't stop until the wee hours of Tuesday. After coordinating their schedules, Salman dropped by to catch up at 4:30 am. He wished SRK good health, a successful life and that his children take his name forward and go beyond everything he has achieved. "I wish Salman's children also take his name forward and make him very proud," the birthday boy quipped.

The social media exploded when the two stars hugged, recreating the Karan-Arjun moment. SRK shared the picture with the caption, "Main Prem Ratan Dhan Payo." There couldn't have been a happier ending to this bromance.

When asked why he had not made the jump to Hollywood yet, he quipped, "I have never ever been offered any work in the West of any girth or value. I also feel that I'm not good enough to do something in the west, language being one issue."

On Tuesday, he headed off to Goa by chartered flight, insisting he won't choose any other life even if he got a chance. "I have become a waver now, and have waved more today than ever in the last 49 years," he smiled, admitting he never imagined he would be the King of Bollywood when he turned half-a-century old.
