Shah Rukh Khan, who is currently in the Capital for the promotions of his film, Raees, celebrated Republic Day with jawans in Punjabi style. In a couple of adorable videos that he posted on his Twitter account, the superstar can be seen shaking a leg with Bhangra dancers and jawans. Notice how the soldiers are matching steps with SRK on the popular number – Chaiyya Chaiyya from Dil Se (1998).

However, filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma seemed miffed and wrote an angry tweet: Ambedkar would be ashamed of us celebrating #26January #RepublicDay because his Constitution is raped at Vizag.
