NEW DELHI: Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has apologised for his “misbehaviour” at an Indian Premier League match in Mumbai when he tried to walk onto the ground after the game.
The actor, who co-owns the Kolkata Knight Riders team that won the tournament final on Sunday, wanted to take a group of youngsters including his daughter onto the Wankhede Stadium outfield after a match on May 16.
When a security guard stopped them, Khan argued angrily with officials for 10-15 minutes before finally giving up.
The 46-year-old star, who denied he was drunk, was banned from the stadium for five years.
“I want to apologise to the kids for my misbehaviour... I apologise to all who saw me differently. I shouldn't have behaved in that manner,” he told reporters after the final in Chennai late Sunday.
Khan, one of the Bollywood film industry's most popular stars, last week pleaded guilty and agreed to pay a fine after he was seen smoking during an IPL match in Jaipur.

Apologizing is always the bravest act and people raise their statures by doing that. However, I really wished SRK had immediately apologized and not waited so long to cool down.

Pakistani PM and others in Pakistan should learn and see that even an Indian film actor has a moral charator and courage. If your superior has done wrong then it is moral obligation of subordinate to say it and not to defend it in public. What type of massage we are sending outside world and to our next generation.

One can not keep on apologizing however brave it is. He should learn fast from his mistakes and should stop giving chance to others, particularly the so called role models in the society. They have high level of influence on the young minds.

"EVEN and Indian film actor has a moral character.........." For real? You're implying that Indian film actors usually lack moral character. You're obviously another pathetic Pakistani who believes that you are morally superior to everyone else. Everyone makes mistakes in their life and SRK is no different; SRK does amazing charity work in India, he is the pride of our nation. He has received numerous national and International honours for his contribution in many fields including arts.

Yes. Pakistani politician should act with courage and fight for the supremacy of the parliament and not give in to the bullying of unelected judges and courts.

Supremacy of parliament is a nice cover when you want to protect corrupt officials sitting in our corridors of power.
Had this episode happened anywhere else, the PM/President would have resigned to ensure that their office was not brought into disrepute. However that is way too much ghairat and sharam to expect from our elected leaders.

SRK is a nice human being and remains so for ever. Police only do wrong things always. They should not have stopped him and kids after all they want to enter the field after the game was over. People should not be finding fault for anything a good man does.
