Kajol teases Shah Rukh Khan

"Hmmmmmmmm, spot the difference," Kajol teased her DDLJ co-star in the caption. As they say, mimicry is the sincerest form of flattery.

Just like Shah Rukh, Kajol posed in a black coat, accompanied by some groovy accessories such as big silver bangles, multiple stylish rings, lots of ear piercings, and an adorable nose ring. The diva decided to keep the makeup on the lighter side, with her hair tied in a ponytail.

As soon as the post was up, netizens flooded the comment section with lovely remarks such as, "And pleaseeeee make a movie together now!!!!! We miss you!!!!", "No difference kajol, he is the King, and you are the Queen", and "His K necklace is definitely a reference to you, @kajol."

About Shah Rukh Khan's MET look

For his debut appearance at the Met ball, the actor wore a floor-length elongated coat in Tasmanian superfine wool with monogrammed, Japanese horn buttons.

"The coat is hand canvassed, single-breasted with a peak collar and wide lapels. Paired with a crepe de chine silk shirt and tailored superfine wool trousers. A pleated satin kamarbandh completes this bespoke look," Sabyasachi said.

Asked to describe his look on the gala's blue carpet, the actor told reporters it was designer Sabyasachi who conceived it "as an expression of freedom and trying to be resolute and resilient against things that can oppress you".

Was Shah Rukh familiar with the Met Gala and its theme 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style', a homage to Black fashion, before he was set to make his debut?

"Honestly, no. In the last 20 days, I got to understand what it (Met Gala) was and being an actor, I thought it (the theme of Black Style) was interesting... The resolve to change things without aggression or anger but have exuberance of art in it... I thought it was marvellous," he said.
