Remarkably, SRK is the only Indian actor who is invited to the World Government Summit. It's SRK's first time at the prestigious gathering dedicated to shaping the future of governments globally. Shah Rukh Khan shared his insights and experiences at the session that explored valuable lessons on perseverance, creativity, and navigating the path to enduring success. During the conversation, the host asked the superstar why he hasn't crossed over to Hollywood. Shah Rukh Khan said, "I want to end my career, which is far from ending right now. I have another 35 years to go. I really want to make that film which is loved by the whole world. And nobody on a big stage asks me 'Why haven't you crossed over'. That film should cross me over. That's my dream!"
