"I really believe in education and with the intervention of social media we have a larger platform to promote it," said Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan during an event in Mumbai.

The superstar attended the event with Chief Minister of Maharashtra Devendra Fadnavis.

Talking about how social media affects the education sector, the 53-year-old highlighted the importance of collaboration of existing colleges and universities.

Taking to his Instagram, the actor thanked Fadnavis for making him a part of the event. He wrote, "Thank u sir @Dev_Fadnavis for making me a part of Mumbai 2.0. This is our city and we will do everything with you to make it more creative, competitive & culturally inclusive. Aamchi Magical Mumbai."

Concluding his statement, the 'Raees' star stated that he aspires to build a "Magical Mumbai". He said, "I believe we can build a Magical Mumbai with three C's- Healthy competition, Creativity and Cultural inclusiveness.
