New Delhi: Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has been nominated to receive an honorary doctorate in arts and culture from Britain’s University of Bedfordshire.

Actor Juhi Chawla and filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt are among its patrons.
“Shah Rukh Khan was selected by us after careful study since he has his head and heart at the right place in spite of being crowned the king of Bollywood.
