SHAHRUKH KHAN UNFORTUNATE HYPOCRITE

For all those of us who have lived by Shah Rukh Khans movies from our teenage years it would sound preposterous to call Shah Rukh Khan a hypocrite. But After the 26/11 attacks in Mumbai we saw a amazing solidarity among all types of citizens and its famous figures. We had people who commanded the hearts of millions coming forward to voice a message condemning such acts and also to make it clear that no religion should tolerate such bigots who commit violence in the name of religion. But where was Shah Rukh Khan he kept mum during the entire period. Silence in such matters is a kind of acceptance and who better than a public figure whom many look upto should have voiced if not in the name of anger but as a veto against terrorism of the worst form. A person of his stature keeping mum on such a matter is tantamount to silent support for terrorists on Indian Soil. This hypocrisy becomes very evident when the next thing you know is he voices criticism against Pakistani players not being included in the IPL league. No wonder the Shiv Sena lashed at such hypocrisy exhibited by Shah Rukh Khan, how could he stoop so low. He is ok with Kasab and his stooges killing all those innocent bystanders but his heart bleeds for fellow Islamic Pakistani players. Its time Shah Rukh Khan really said to all Indians “ My name is Khan and Im not a terrorist” otherwise we will find it hard to believe the same.
I fully support Shiv Sena this one instance.
