Shah Rukh Khan is one of the most chivalrous actors who can effortlessly win hearts with his kindness and respect for women. The latest example of his chivalry is saving the young Nitanshi Goel from tripping at the Filmfare Awards 2025.
Nitanshi won her first Best Debut Filmfare Award for her incredible performance in Laapataa Ladies. While all eyes were on her, she experienced an almost "oops" moment while walking up the stage to collect her award.
And as dramatic as it can be, she was rescued by the king of romance, Shah Rukh Khan, who was hosting the award function in Ahmedabad.

Some even compared her fall to that of Hollywood actress Jennifer Lawrence`s Oscar moment in 2013. One Reddit user commented, “Almost had a Jennifer Lawrence fall. Some might say it`s good luck for your career.”
Nitanshi Goel playfully replied to the comparison and shared, “Yes, I read the comments, and honestly, the internet can be a very interesting place. As actors we are accustomed to wearing gowns which have huge trains, and I think now I understand Jennifer’s ‘Kick Walk’ instruction a little better!”
