Description:
After Shah Rukh Khan's latest film Pathaan became the target of scrutiny and religious fanaticism, the actor had to face many obstacles and criticism to his long-awaited comeback on the big screen. The row heightened to the extent that a Hindu supernatural leader threatened to burn the superstar alive. Although the Siddharth Anand directorial has now been released in cinemas, King Khan took his chance at a press conference held this week to speak about harmony and love in society.
Taking to Twitter, a fan shared a video of the Jawan star talking about equality in all religions and cultures. In the clip circulating online, Khan pointed towards his Pathaan co-stars and said, “This is Deepika Padukone, her name is Amar. I'm Shah Rukh Khan hun, i'm Akbar. That is John, he's Anthony. And this is what makes cinema - Amar, Akbar and Anthony. There are no differences that any of us have for anybody, for any culture or in any aspect of life. We love you, that’s why we make films so you give us love."
He then went on to thank his fans for their endless devotion. "We are actually hungry for love, and when we receive it from you people, thats enough, none of the box office numbers matter then. There's nothing greater than a fan's love for us celebrities," expressed Khan.
The Dilwale actor then concluded his statement by talking about the importance of preserving Indian culture. He stated, “And we have to keep our culture, our old stories and all that is seeped into this beautiful country which is India — we have to tell the stories in modern ways, in different forms. And when we tell the stories in different ways there is no way we’re deriding anybody. We’re just trying to speak the language of youngsters which has changed.”
Shah Rukh Khan just gave a MASTERCLASS in how to do a press conference. This is why he is the KING. He promotes religious harmony, inclusivity, love and happiness. I’m glad I chose my childhood hero well. #Pathaan pic.twitter.com/Z9pC1TwQi0
