... in the news
Shah Rukh Khan was very much in the news, the past few weeks, especially in Sri Lanka, with most Sri Lankans eagerly awaiting his arrival, in Colombo, on 2nd August.
Of course, it didn't happen, and none of us know the real reason for his, let's call it, last minute cancellation.
Officially, it was stated that the cancellation was "due to unforeseen and unavoidable personal reasons beyond his control."
It was also mentioned that he was injured on the set of 'King' but that was reported as false by NDTV and 'Times of India'.
However, SRK is in the news again and this time it's mainly in India.
Shah Rukh Khan's National Award win for 'Best Actor' for his performance in 'Jawan' has sparked controversy. Some people were surprised that it took him 33 years to receive this honour, while others are questioning the merit behind Khan's win.
