The 48th edition of the International Film Festival of India has a star-studded line-up of events and will be inaugurated by none other than Shah Rukh Khan while Salman Khan is scheduled to grace the closing event of the festival. Also, Bollywood bigwigs like Katrina Kaif and Shahid Kapoor will be seen at the inauguration too. But that's not what we're here to talk about today. It is reportedly said that King Khan will be staying back a day in Goa after the inauguration ceremony and here's why...

The actor will open the International Film Festival of India (IFFI) at the Shyama Prasad Mukherjee stadium in Panaji and won't be making his way back to Mumbai because he plans to stay back for a day to attend the India premiere of 'Murder On The Orient Express' based on Agatha Christie's classic bestseller. The actor is apparently a major fan of the novelist's and is said to be keen to watch the Johnny Depp and Penélope Cruz starrer.

Who knew SRK would turn out to be an Agatha Christie fan, right?
