Shahrukh Khan has finally admitted that what he did at the Wenkhede Stadium after a Kolkatta Knight Riders and Mumbai Indians IPL match was wrong. Talking to newsmen at his residence after his team’s victory in the IPL he said he was ‘ashamed’ for his conduct after the fixture. What put sense into him? Apparently his wife and children, immediately after the episode, told him that he shouldn’t have behaved the way he did. According to him, this had also made him realise that his children are now grown-up individuals and can tell him where he goes off-the-mark.

While this all sounds well, one thing should be taken note of: SRK is yet to apologise to the Wenkhede Stadium’s authorities. Interesting, isn’t it?
