The entire team of the film, including the director Imtiaz Ali, visited the city for the first time.
Shah Rukh, Anushka and Imtiaz were spotted chewing betel leaves, famously known as 'Banarasi paan'.
Since the film focuses on tourism, the temple town was chosen in list of cities for promotion as it is believed to be one of the major tourist destinations, that attracts a large number ofpeople from across the world, said Shah Rukh Khan.
The culture here attracts people from across the world, the bollywood actor said, sharing his experience in London where he said, one of the city's best restaurant was named after 'Benaras'.
Earlier in the day, the actor, joined by Bhojpuri singer and BJP MPManoj Tiwari, also sang a Bhojpurisong 'Lollypop Lagelu' during a promotional event at a private institute in the city.
The trio expressed hope that the film will be appreciated by the audience and would be a huge success.
The team left the city with a promise to re-visit and spend more time.
