New Delhi, India

Ed Sheeran is back in India! The Perfect singer has been all over the internet ever since he landed in the South Asian country. The singer will perform the last gig of his  +–=÷× Mathematics Tour in Mumbai, and before that, he's having a great time with Bollywood stars like Shah Rukh Khan, Ayushmann Khurrana, Arman Malik and other celebs. 

During his recent interaction with India Today, the ''Photograph'' singer talked about his love for Indian cinema as he went on to name SS Rajamouli's RRR as his favourite Indian movie.

Released in 2022, the movie became an international sensation, especially for its Oscar-winning track ''Naatu Naatu''. Speaking to the Indian news portal, Ed called Ram Charan and Jr NTR's drama, ''incredible.''

"RRR is mental. It is an incredible film,” he said. 

The song ''Naatu Naatu'' won the Best Original Song Award at the 95th Academy Awards. 

Speaking about his second visit to India and the joy of performing, the singer said, “I really feel the love here, in India. Sometimes you can play in places and people can be very subdued. Like, even if they are feeling [the vibe] inside them, you can never read how people feel. I have played in certain countries where people have a subdued reaction, but here, in India, it's a vibrant country. People are so excited! I have the same personality, so I like that.”

On Wednesday, Sheeran was the special guest at Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh's sprawling home Mannat. The singer had a great time, and the videos and photos that have emerged online are a big proof of that. 

The singer shared a video of him with Khan doing his signature hand pose. 

Set to the song "Deewangi Deewangi" from the 2007 film Om Shanti Om, ED and Khan can be seen having a great time. Sharing the clip, the singer wrote, ''This is the Shape of Us. Spreading love together.''

Director Farah Khan who was present at SRK's home, shared a photo with Ed on her Instagram handle and wrote, "When u get to direct Ed Sheeran & Shahrukh khan u get? …. #SherKhan of course @iamsrk @teddysphotos"

Previously, a hilarious video of Sheeran and singer Armaan Malik went viral. In the clip, the two singers can be seen grooving to the hit Telugu song "Butta Bomma" from the film Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo.

Ed will perform in Mumbai on March 16.
