Shah Rukh Khan was seen in an all-black Sabyasachi dress, whereas Priyanka wore a white outfit with black polka dots.
Call it a sheer coincidence, but Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra once wore outfits in strikingly similar colours and tones during a promotional event for Don—a resemblance that fans were quick to connect with their recent Met Gala looks.

Users are boggled over this coincidence and are asking whether they coordinated before their Met Gala appearance.
Some fans also posted funny memes regarding this coincidence.
One user commented, “My guess is that they're putting aside the fact that they low-key hate each other right now to pull off this stunt for PR and relevancy reasons. Priyanka is gearing up for her return to Bollywood and SRK is trying to maintain his post-comeback relevancy even though he hasn't put out anything new since 2023. We're never gonna stop talking about their affair anyways, so they might as well make it work for them by reminding us of a time when they were both at their peak.”
