Controversies
- Shah Rukh Khan 2013 made a statement that he was going to have a baby boy through surrogacy. He came under fire for this comment as in India, Sex determination is banned in India by the Government of India. Indian Radiological and Imaging Associations had severly criticised Khan. But surprisingly, BMC gave a clean chit to the Shah Rukh Khan
- He was seen publicly smoking at the Indian Premier League match in 2012.
- Shah Rukh Khan became a huge talking point in a country when he commented on “extreme intolerance” in a forum. It generated massive products and condemnation around the country. He later then clarified that his words have perceived in a different way. He said that he was reluctant to comment on this, but at the frequent insistence, he said that youth should focus on India making a progressive and secular country.
- A native group accused him of openly defying heritage rules and a building ramp outside of his bungalow, which was demolished by the BMC officials.
- Moreshwar Ajgaonkar, the chartered accountant of the Shah Rukh Khan, told the Income Tax official that Khan bought the Alibag plot using forged documents. He bought agricultural land for agricultural purposes but instead, he constructed a super-luxurious bungalow on it.
Mannat Bunglow Controversy
According to reports, Shah Rukh Khan’s Mannat home has a ramp next to it that was allegedly erected illegally and has long been a point of contention. Poonam Mahajan, a BJP MP, has reportedly taken issue with this ramp. Poonam asked that the ramp in front of actor Shah Rukh Khan’s Bandra residence, Mannat, be removed in a letter addressed to the BMC. Locals have reportedly complained to the BMC about the actor’s intrusion on their route on a regular basis. Poonam helped them by writing a letter addressed to the BMC.
Lata Mangeshkar Funeral Controversy
Recently, superstar Shah Rukh Khan has been the target of unjustified criticism when a video of him praying during Lata Mangeshkar’s funeral went viral on the internet. The actor was seen raising his hands in the Islamic dua before releasing his breath to fend off the evil eye. While two politicians claimed the actor spat, the majority of people applauded the gesture as proof of India’s diversity.
For a brief moment, he removed his mask and made a face that some naive internet users thought was spitting. In actuality, Shah Rukh Khan exhaled after reciting a dua, which is a religious rite performed by many Muslims.
SRK brought up the essay on My Country assignment that pupils had to complete at school during the interview. We don’t have it as Indian citizens, thus he thought it was inappropriate. He said that ownership does not imply that this is our India. For the benefit of the country, we must act. Anti-nationals and anti-socials are terms used to describe those who do not think of themselves as belonging to India. I am saddened since my family has fought for my country. I become even more depressed when I read about such events since they go against my father’s advice to “keep this country free as I gave it to you.”
Intolerance Controversy
A few months back, Shah Rukh Khan got involved in a big controversy after making a statement at an event regarding extreme intolerance in India. In response to the controversy surrounding the actor and his recently released film Dilwale, a number of rallies were organized. Even though SRK first justified his statement by saying that it was misinterpreted, the actor made a totally different decision this time. At the most recent Fan trailer release event, Khan was questioned once more concerning the demonstrations and anti-SRK activities. The performer smiled in response. ‘Out’ is the only appeal I would make while watching the Mumbai Indians play the Kolkata Knight Riders. I’m not going to do this. The choice to remain silent is a part of the freedom of expression.

Affair
Juhi Chawla
More than 10 movies featuring Shah Rukh and Juhi Chawla together include Darr Yes Boss Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani. Among others, Raam Jaane Duplicate Bhootnath and Paheli. Their chemistry was praised by the audience. Although Juhi recently claimed in an interview that she and Shahrukh are just good friends, there had long been speculations that they were dating.
Priyanka Chopra
While filming Don 2, Shah Rukh and Priyanka manage to get along at last. Shah Rukh began sending her casting tips for movies. to go to Priyanka’s house parties in Mannat Shahrukh. At the celebration, she spent a lot of time with Gauri. Everyone was confused by this new intimacy, especially Karan Johar. But Gauri didn’t give it much thought.
PeeCee started paying frequent visits to Mannat in addition to organizing joint performances, attending film festivals, and even making overt attempts to acquire commercial endorsements for their partnership. The media and B-town spoke about the romance between SRK and PeeCee. But when this story of genuine love ended, they both denied everything.
Since his and Priyanka’s relationship became well-known, they frequently attended events together, gave off the impression that they enjoyed each other’s company, and constantly acknowledged their emotions for one another in interviews. Rumors became so fantastic that it was quite difficult to believe them. Rumors circulated that SRK was planning to break up with Gauri, that Priyanka had stopped seeing him, and that he had spent millions of rupees buying her a new property, among other things. The biggest rumor I heard—which I’m not convinced is true—was that they got married in secret. They were both well-known celebrities at the time and had achieved considerable success. Everyone mentioned how nearly impossible it was to hide any of them. Priyanka used the read-between-the-lines technique in a Koffee with Karan episode to suggest that there had been a serious incident between them and that they were no longer speaking.

When a fan inquires as to whether Shah Rukh Khan is aware of Salman Khan’s birthday, he responds in style: I don’t want him on Instagram
During his Q&A session with followers on X (formerly known as Twitter), Shah Rukh Khan was asked by a fan whether he was aware that Salman Khan turns 58 today. “Aaj bade Bhai Salman Khan ji ko janamdin Hain (Today is big brother Salman Khan’s birthday),” the individual wrote. In response to the user, Shah Rukh Khan commented, “I know and I have wished him,” indicating that he had previously expressed his wish. It’s personal, so I don’t do it on social media, right? Wow, that picture of your brother is really amazing (by the way, I love it).
Speaking to news agency ANI earlier this year, Salman discussed the arguments and trolling on social media between himself and SRK supporters, saying, “I always tell my fans that he (SRK) is your brother’s (Salman) brother, so nothing should happen to him.” Therefore, my admirers didn’t do anything. Additionally, I don’t use social media very much and I don’t understand the negativity and trolling, so Shah Rukh and I am not too bothered by the things we don’t understand.”
Salman Khan made a brief appearance in Shah Rukh Khan’s popular film Pathaan earlier this year. In return, SRK appeared in Salman’s Tiger 3, which was released on Diwali this year, in a brief cameo role. Salman made a cameo appearance in Shah Rukh’s 1998 smash hit movie Kuch Kuch Hota Hai during the 1990s. In Salman’s Har Dil Jo Pyar Karega, Shah Rukh too had a cameo. Salman and Shah Rukh Khan costarred in the classic 1995 movie Karan Arjun and appeared again in Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam in 2002. Following Shah Rukh’s appearance in Salman’s 2017 movie Tubelight, Salman paid it forward by making a cameo in Shah Rukh’s Zero.
