Khan even took to Twitter to express his happiness and thanked everyone for the overwhelming response. "Big thk u sabko fr giving sabse bada opening mere career ka par what made me the happiest and proudest is ki during a scene in my film jab national anthem is recited ev1 stood up as a mark of respect. There could be no bigger respect for our country than this... Jai Hind Bharat," Salman wrote on Twitter.
