As an actor Shahrukh is among the face of the Indian film industry. But with respect to the current issue he has once again fooled us! We all know that, he is a master of publicity and public relations. However it always doesn't work as one expects. Present issue is the best example. If Shahrukh was so concern about his friends in Pakistan, then why didn't he buy a single player in KKR from Pakistan? It was easily possible being the owner of the team. His statement n concern was purely a publicity stunt for his movie - my name is......... If we apply this logic to this issue, then Shivsena also has all the rights to materialize the golden opportunity to recreate its buzz. However I am not supporting Shivsena, because if they demands apology from Shahrukh on Pakistan issue then why not from entire Bollywood. Many singers from Pakistan come to sing in Bollywood films, even without having Indian work permit.
Everyone is concern for his or her own interest. Hence lets not get bias because we love some actor or support some political party! But also think over that, how ethical it is to enjoy music or cricket or any other source of entertainment with or from people who promote terrorism in our country. How could we have two different stands when we face terror attacks and when it comes to entertainment. Think of those families who have sacrificed their love ones in terror attacks. Even we could be the next victim or someone from our family!
Someone may argue that, what we can do about it. Government is doing its work. From past 50 years our government is making some efforts, but any solution? What we could do as a common man? Remember the 'non cooperation' movement during our freedom fight? Same way say no to these guys who come to our country and earn money! This will also result in some pressure on the Pakistan government from their own people! Doing agitation on the road might be a 'goonda gardi' for white-collar people, but at least we all could do this right?
