In an unexpected wave of nostalgia, Bollywood icons Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra set social media ablaze with their MET Gala 2025 appearances — which bore an uncanny resemblance to their outfits from a 2007 event promoting their cult hit Don.
While they weren’t seen posing together, both stars made individual red carpet appearances that immediately reminded fans of a joint public appearance at a Delhi polo match in 2007, shortly after Don’s release. Back then, Priyanka stunned in a black-and-white polka-dotted halter-neck dress, and Shah Rukh kept it sleek in a black suit — nearly identical to their MET Gala 2025 ensembles.
Reddit and X (formerly Twitter) were flooded with side-by-side comparisons and speculations about whether the similarity was a coincidence or a deliberate tribute.
“OP don’t let anyone gaslight you into thinking this is a coincidence,” one user wrote.
Another chimed in, “Now these are a lil too similar. Blast from the past on another level!”
Their on-screen chemistry in Don (2006) and Don 2 (2011) remains iconic, and this unspoken style synchronicity reignited fans’ hopes of a third installment — or at least more public appearances together.
Interestingly, this isn’t the first time Shah Rukh and Priyanka have dominated headlines together at an international event. However, neither star commented on the fashion echo, leaving fans to decode the subtle throwback on their own.
