Amid Pathaan row, SRK touches feet of Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan, wins hearts

Amid Sharukh Khan’s ‘Besharam Rang’ controversy, the actor is winning hearts with his humble gesture.
One simple gesture of Shah Rukh Khan is winning hearts at a time when his effigies are being burnt, social media is criticising him and Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Narottam Mishra is threatening not to release his upcoming film Pathaan. So what did King Khan do?
After the felicitation at the 28th Kolkata International Film Festival, Shah Rukh Khan touched Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan’s feet and social media is loving this.
In his speech at the KIFF, the Badshah spoke about staying positive amid the negativity. “The collective narrative of our times is shaped by social media. Contrary to the belief that social media will affect cinema negatively, I believe cinema has an even more important role to play now. Social media is often driven by a certain narrowness of view that limits human nature to its baser self. I read somewhere that negativity increases social media consumption and thereby increases its commercial value as well. Such pursuits enclose the collective narrative, making it divisive and destructive. And I have no qualms in saying, that no matter what the world does, me and you, and all positive people in the world are ALIVE,” Shah Rukh said amid the negative remarks on social media against Pathaan.
The song ‘Besharam Rang’ has drawn a lot of criticism with many including the Madhya Pradesh Home Minister objecting to the costume of Deepika Padukone, Shah Rukh’s co-star in the film.
