New Delhi: Shah Rukh Khan isn't King Khan back home alone. The 58th Berlin film festival saw some mass fan hysteria as Shah Rukh walked the red carpet ahead of the screening of his film Om Shanti Om.

As Shah Rukh walked down the red carpet at the Berlinale, besotted girls and star-struck fans were seen shouting and crying out the superstar’s name. It wasn't a reincarnation of Elvis or the Beatles walking the red carpet. Shah Rukh Khan, who arrived at the festival for a screening of his home production, was welcomed by girls screaming out high-pitched love messages.

“I don't want to sound pompous, but I am here, so Bollywood is here already,” Shah Rukh was quoted as saying.

So the star got busy signing autographs and interacting with fans. But soon the level of hysteria spiraled out of control. Some of the fans had to be taken off the venue.

“It is very humbling and it is so sweet that there are so many people here in Germany. To be really honest, I have never done anything that is so special. It makes me feel very special and much loved. It seems like a blessing from Allah,” Shah Rukh said.

Om Shanti Om is being screened in the out of competition section at the Berlinale which goes on till the 17th of February.
