The superstar met Shakira in South Africa during the just-concluded FIFA World Cup 2010 along with wife Gauri and kids Aryan, Suhana and has been in awe of the singer since then.
"Have never been more excited to meet a rockstar. the wife & daughter adore her so do the father & son," Khan tweeted about the 'Hips Don't Lie' singer.
"Gorgeous gracious & absolutely heartwarming shakira. was so nice to the kids we r fans for life (sic)," he added.
The 44-year-old actor was so impressed with Shakira's down-to-earth nature that he further wrote, "she was so humble & so real. thats why she is such a rockstar. said my name with a beautiful accent too."
Khan posted pictures of his family with the singer on his twitter account and also posted a tweet on Shakira's page.
"Thank you so much for your graciousness. You are a fabulous star. The kids think of me as a big hero now. May god bless you. Love, Srk," Khan wrote.
