Bollywood loves Dubai, so it's no surprise that the city roped in superstar Shah Rukh Khan to promote the cosmopolitan earlier in 2016.
Shah Rukh recently featured in a #BeMyGuest film by Dubai Corporation for Tourism and Commerce Marketing (DCTCM), inviting people to be his "guest" at the city of sun, sand and adventure.
The film showcased why Dubai is the actor's home away from home.
He shows the soul, sights and sounds of the metropolis through experiencing different dimensions of Dubai amongst its people and inviting them to "come with me, be my guest".
"Dubai offers endless experiences that stay with you forever. Whatever you want to do - an adrenaline-fuelled adventure like skydiving or a desert safari or a delicious culinary experience of tantalising flavours - and whether you're travelling with family, friends or as a couple, this city truly offers a complete holiday experience," Shah Rukh, who even has a house here, said in a statement.
He said working with Dubai Tourism has helped him "rediscover this inspiring city in a whole new way".
So how much impact has the campaign had so far? Some Bollywood stars have already accepted the invitation and began their new year by visiting Dubai.
Young stars, including Sushant Singh Rajput of 'Kai Po Che' fame and actress Parineeti Chopra visited Dubai earlier this month with the latter still in town for a shoot.
Both took to Instagram to share their Dubai experience.
Nearly six days back, Rajput posted this picture of him landing in Dubai on Instagram:
Try failing first and you will enjoy small successes more and while you're at it seek massive failures and see yourself flying. #selfmusing #Dubai

I look at her and the 'present' musters the courage to dare eternity and the 'future' waits with generous patience to allow me my time with her. #selfmusing
