The Elephant Whisperers' producer Guneet Monga who shares a Dilli connection with SRK received a shout-out from the superstar on Twitter. Touched with SRK's words, Guneet's reply to King Khan was equally filled with warmth. Heaping praise on Guneet and team RRR SRK said both the Oscar wins are truly inspirational. He also sent a virtual "Big hug" to Guneet and The Elephant Whisperers' team. Replying to SRK, the Oscar-winning producer said that she draws inspiration from him and hopes to get a "hug in person soon."

READ | Oscars 2023: Did you know, how the Academy decides the best of the best?
It's worth noting that SRK did anticipate Naatu Naatu Oscar win months back. His Twitter banter with Ram Charan amused everyone but little did anyone know what King Khan said in jest would turn out to be true at the Oscars 2023. While Naatu Naatu won the Best Original Song award, Monga-produced The Elephant Whisperers brought home an Oscar in the Best Documentary Short Film category at the Oscar that took place on March 13 at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles.
