Bollywood Badshah Shah Rukh Khan was launched as the face of Champions League T20 at a five star hotel in Mumbai. He also launched the winner’s trophy.
Though SRK arrived late at this occasion but he answered many questions including Gautam Gabhir’s injury and also reacted to Naseer Hussain’s controversial comments in which he has addressed few Indian players as donkeys.
“I don’t want to be diplomatic but we shouldn’t let this statement affect the relations between England and India. We should treat this in a humorous way. The Brits have their own way of reacting to situations. It may not make sense but when Donkeys become Gadha, it sounds different. We have had a disappointing series in England but we should stand by our players. Our players are blamed irresponsible for rendering dismal performances even in our country when I know every player plays to win. No player plays to lose. They have a jazba (spirit) which should not be questioned. I consider even that as offensive as even we do it. The only way we can fight back is by playing better Cricket” said Shah Rukh Khan.
SRK in his signature style added, “People call me gadha! They do. But sher toh sher hi hota hai.”
