Thanking Tom, the 'Fan' actor tweeted, "You are kind, God of Mischief... hope there's no mischief behind this claim though. Lots of love Tom and can't wait to binge Loki!!! Starting now- Ep 1!"

'Loki', which recently premiered on Disney Plus Hotstar has had MCU fans going gaga over it. In the promotional video posted on June 8, Tom seemed to be an avid SRK fan while playing the Word Association game. In it, he took Shah Rukh's name when asked about his first thought on India. Later, when he was asked about Bollywood, he asked back, "Am I allowed to say Shah Rukh Khan again? Shah Rukh Khan again!"

The 40-year-old actor also revealed that he had a special connection with the city of Chennai. "My akka (elder sister) lives there. She used to live there. And I have been there a few times. Chennai is great," Hiddleston said in the video. Though a huge global icon himself Tom is clearly one of Shah Rukh's admirers since Bollywood's King Khan has a huge fan base all across the world.
