Shah Rukh Khan slams ‘crappy journalism’ for made-up fight with Jaya Bachchan!

November 10, 2014

Mumbai, Nov 10: Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has slammed in harsh words a media report that alleged that he turned down an apology from the Bachchans over Jaya Bachchan’s purported remark that 'Happy New Year' is the most nonsensical film.

It has to be granted that some in the media have gone overboard in stretching a made-up fight between Shah Rukh Khan and the Bachchans to an unimaginable limit.

A latest media report alleges that Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai visited Shahrukh Khan’s Mannat to apologize for Jaya Bachchan’s comment made earlier this week at a literature festival in Mumbai.

The said report alleges that SRK refused to meet Abhishek and Aishwarya, even though they stayed for a long time waiting with Gauri Khan. If that’s not it, the report even goes on to state that SRK didn’t even care to reply to a text message from Amitabh Bachchan, apologizing to him for Jaya Bachchan’s comment.

Shah Rukh Khan linked that story on his Twitter page and tweeted, “(I) have not read a more crappy, made up piece of journalism lately.” The superstar also added Twitter handles of Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan to the post.

Jaya Bachchan’s statement at the literature festival was taken out of context and given an anti-‘HNY’ twist by the rumourmongers, and that fact hasn’t gone down well with the Bachchans on the one hand and Shah Rukh Khan on the other.

As for now, things remain cordial between the two parties.

Kangana Ranaut attacks ‘Tejasvi Surya’, accuses him of hooliganism mistaking him for Tejashwi Yadav

News Network

May 5,2024

New Delhi, May 5: Actor-turned-politician Kangana Ranaut intended to target an opposition leader but mistakenly ended up attacking her BJP colleague instead.

A similarity in names - Tejashwi and Tejasvi - was behind Ms Ranaut's fumble. "There's a party of spoilt princes... whether it's Rahul Gandhi who wants to grow potatoes on the Moon, or Tejasvi Surya who does hooliganism and eats fish," she had said.

RJD leader and former Bihar deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav was supposed to be the original target of her diatribe as one of his videos where he was seen eating fish became a major flashpoint between the BJP and the opposition recently.

Tejasvi Surya, incorrectly referred to by Ms Ranaut during an election rally yesterday, is BJP's Lok Sabha candidate from Bengaluru South constituency in Karnataka.

Meanwhile, Mr Yadav has responded to a clip of Kangana Ranaut's statement. "Ye mohtarma kaun hai?" (Who is this lady?), he posted on X.

Kangana Ranaut has been verbally bashing the Congress party since the BJP fielded her as their Lok Sabha candidate from Himachal Pradesh's Mandi. Congress leaders Vikramaditya Singh - her opponent in Mandi - and Rahul Gandhi have been the main targets on her dartboard.

While addressing a public rally in the Sundernagar area of Mandi Parliamentary Constituency yesterday, Ms Ranaut took a jibe at Mr Singh and Mr Gandhi over dynasty politics and said that both of them have a magic stick for development and talk only about non-practical things.

The Congress hit back saying the 37-year-old actor should first check the facts about her party leaders and speak about dynastic politics. National Media Coordinator for the Congress, Amrit Kaur, also questioned her qualifications on which she got a BJP ticket from Mandi.

The Mandi Lok Sabha constituency will go to polls on June 1, in the seventh phase of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
