When Shah Rukh Khan spoke about his Wankhede Stadium brawl: 'There was a person who used a religious word which was...'

Shah Rukh Khan, the co-owner of the IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders, was involved in the much-publicised verbal spat with a security guard at Wankhede Stadium back in 2012. He even spoke about the same in an interview and revealed what exactly happened.

While speaking on Aap Ki Adaalat, SRK revealed, “I was very angry and upset. My kids were there and I thought someone… Maybe they had a rule, that hatao yaha se. I told him, these are our kids and we are taking them. I just said this. There was a person there who said a word which I, as a Delhi person, felt like it was an abusive word. Even though the same word in Marathi is also rude. It was religious, it was wrong, I then lost my cool, main pagal hogaya and I went to hit him.”

Khan alongside the star cast of their recent mega blockbuster Jawan, including actress Deepika Padukone and music composer Anirudh Ravichander, attended the success meet of the Atlee directorial on Friday evening in Mumbai.

Speaking at the event, SRK shared how his son Aryan Khan helped him return to the sets of his last release Pathaan with a newfound enthusiasm, after a three-year gap. King Khan last appeared in the 2018 film Zero, before scripting a historic successes with Pathaan and now Jawan.

On a comeback

Speaking at the press conference, Shah Rukh Khan shared how he was ‘very nervous’ about not working for years. He stated, “Main bhi bahut nervous tha ki maine itne saal kaam nahi kiya (I was very nervous that I hadn’t worked for so many years).” The superstar further added how ‘it was very new’ for him to return to a set after three years itself.

Calling the feeling ‘very, very different,’ he described how his elder son, Aryan, told him, “When we were growing up, we knew what stardom in the air felt like because your films were big hits. The daughter (Suhana Khan) says I know it. But this little one (AbRam Khan) knows you’re a star, but has never seen or felt it in the air. So next 5 films, please work very hard. He’ll feel it in the air. He’ll love you, respect you,” Shah Rukh said at the press conference.
