Shah Rukh Khan's Film with 23-Year Younger Actress Fails to Impress at Box Office
Shah Rukh Khan's new movie 'When Harry Met Sejal' didn't do as well as expected at the box office.
Even though it had a big budget and famous actors, it only made a little more than it cost to make.
The movie is about a 50-year-old man who falls in love with a 27-year-old woman, which is a big age difference.
Some people were excited to see this movie because Shah Rukh Khan and Anushka Sharma have worked together before and their chemistry was loved.
But this time, the movie didn't become a big hit like their previous movies.
