New Delhi/IBNS: In an appreciation post for Shah Rukh Khan, industrialist Anand Mahindra, who is super-ecstatic about the film 'Jawan', called the Bollywood superstar a 'natural resource' for the country.

Sharing a video of Shah Rukh performing in Dubai at the Jawan event, Anand Mahindra wrote, "All countries guard their natural mineral resources and mine them and usually export them to earn forex. Maybe it's time to declare @iamsrk a Natural Resource...."

His post garnered the Internet's big love.

Shah Rukh Khan also replied to the comment in his signature wit.

He wrote, "Thank u so much. I keep trying in my small humble way to make our country proud in terms of making cinema. And hope as a ‘natural resource' I am not limited!!! Big hug sir."

Earlier, Anand Mahindra shared a clip from the song Zinda Banda and praised Shah Rukh Khan's infectious energy in the song.

"This hero is 57 years old. His ageing process defies gravitational forces!  He's 10X as alive as most people. #ZindaBanda ho to aisa." Shah Rukh Khan replied to Anand Mahindra in his signature style. SRK wrote, "Life is so short and fast sir, just trying to keep up with it. Try and entertain as many whatever it takes....laugh..cry...shake...or fly...hopefully make some swim with the stars....dream for a few moments of joy," he wrote.

Jawan fever has gripped the nation and how as the film released on Thursday. Several social media posts and viral videos vouch for the fact that Jawan craze is here to stay.

After the film's release, Shah Rukh Khan shared a thank you note for his fans and he wrote, "Wow have to take time out and thank each and every Fan Club and all of you who have gone so happily in the theatres and even outside. So overwhelmed will surely do the needful as soon as I get my breath back in a day or so. Uff!! Love u for loving #Jawan."
