Shah Rukh Khan's Advice: 'Speak Your Mind In The Bathroom'

March 20, 2017

New Delhi, Mar 20: Actor Shah Rukh Khan has made a promise to his family and is trying hard to keep it, seriously. The 51-year-old actor was speaking at a conclave held in Mumbai last week where he was asked to share tips on how to shut someone up, with an indirect reference to SRK's Wankhede Stadium incident. A little recap here: The actor was banned from entering the Mumbai stadium for five years starting 2012 after he was charged with alleged intimidation following a heated argument with a security guard during an IPL match. Thehe ban was lifted in 2015. At the conclave in Mumbai, SRK, who appeared to be in the persona of his Dear Zindagi character, psychiatrist Dr Jehangir Khan, said: "Shut up to me is too decent. I should not bring this up. I have promised my family I will not talk like this on stage and get into trouble again."

srk2The Raees actor added, "I think in today's world (one should) be decent, be gracious, bow down a little. I am not giving you freedom to speak your mind, talk your mind, it's a different world today. Speak your mind in the bathroom."

When asked about his opinion of social media, SRK said that clarifying or refuting rumours is actually pointless. "The good point about social media is you can put your point across. I do find good-thinking, smart, intelligent people going out there and kind of making a fool of themselves by refuting (rumours). You can't spend your life explaining things and what you feel and what you mean to people," said SRK.

In 2015, Shah Rukh Khan's comments on 'intolerance' became massively controversial. This is what SRK said during an exclusive interview: "Religious intolerance, or intolerance of any kind, is the worst thing and will take us to the dark ages." Later, after criticism from political leaders, SRK said that his comments were misunderstood: "What I want to say I speak. But lot of things I say are misconstrued, perhaps misrepresented, perhaps misinterpreted sometime," he told the media in Kolkata. "I have not said anything for which I should apologise. I am not in a stage or age that I need to clarify. People know me. Perhaps they did not understand what I said."

Last year, SRK refused to respond when asked about the cancellation of Pakistani singer, Ghulam Ali's concert in Mumbai. "Unfortunately because of the reactions I get when I answer something political or religious, I don't think I will answer this question," PTI quoted Shah Rukh Khan as saying.

Shah Rukh Khan is currently busy with Imtiaz Ali's next film, co-starring Anushka Sharma. He was last seen playing the role of a liquor baron in Raees. He also stars as a dwarf in Aanand L Rai's upcoming film, details of which are not known.

Washington, Mar 10: British adventurer Bear Grylls on Monday shared the power-packed trailer of `Into The Wild` episode featuring South Indian superstar Rajinikanth.

The video captures Rajinikanth driving through the forests of Bandipur in Karnataka, where the episode has been filmed. The 45-year-old adventurer shared the daredevil video on Twitter featuring Rajinikanth amid the woods and in the background, Grylls is heard saying "He`s faced a lot of fears, but he never gives up. He`s relentlessly positive."

He captioned the post on Twitter and wrote: "Superstar @Rajinikanth`s relentless positivity and never giving up spirit was so visible in the wild as he embraced every challenge thrown at him. Respect! Watch Into The Wild with @BearGryllson March 23 at 8:00 pm. @DiscoveryIN#ThalaivaOnDiscovery."

The video shows the Padma Bhushan actor and Grylls climbing hills and wading through gorges and ravine. The duo is seen driving through the Deccan forest. Amid the video, Grylls is seen addressing Rajinikanth as a "superhero." The actor is seen pulling off his signature `sunglass` move.

Earlier in February, the adventure show host shared an intriguing motion poster marking superstar Rajinikanth`s blockbuster TV debut in Discovery`s `Into the Wild`. Grylls also shared that it was a special experience for him to work with the Rajinikanth.

In January, Rajinikanth suffered minor injuries while shooting for the special episode of `Man vs Wild` Bandipur forest in Karnataka.

After Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Rajinikanth becomes the second Indian personality to be featured on Grylls` survival show.

The episode with Prime Minister Modi was aired last year in August and became quite an attraction among viewers.
