failure and success are not permanent - SRK





Back to the humble self the pride owner of Kolkatta Knight Riders and much popularly the King Khan was happy to meet the press after the much controversial weeks with his team and game. He says he has been tasting failure for the past few years and he totally accepts the fact. And for his misbehavior, he feels that it is perfectly human emotion when one's family is involved. He had clarified himself yesterday that he wont be apologizing to the MCA for what he did, although post match he did apologize to his fans for showing out a 'not-so-good' side of his with the brawl.

"In last five years, I have changed and realised I can also fail," Shah Rukh told reporters Wednesday when he was asked what he has learned from failure and controversies."I had not faced failure for many years and it (failure) has made me humble... you can`t get angry and say the world is wrong and we have to realise failure is part of our life... failure and success are not permanent," he added.

Shahrukh who has been involved in a bad events since the bad outing of Ra.One at boxoffice, he had been involved in the fight with Shirish Kunder and further with the MCA officials. Both events had given a wrong impression about the star but it seems he is perfectly in control and cool about it. Although the other side of the story is that he was cornered and he had no other option than to react in the violent of gestures that is known. 

Although the team he owns seems to have a different luck this year as they went ahead with beating Chennai Super Kings at the finals to win the IPL 5 cup. SRK still seems to be in the kick of the success and says "I don`t remember the last six balls.. I was only praying to Allah Miyan... I was having a personal conversation with Allah Miyan... cricket pe you don`t have any control...(daughter) Suhana asked, `Will we win the match?` And I just hugged her... every time she had come to see the match, we won... I have always told my kids hard work pays... the entire night I watched the match (replays)... three times with Juhi and her husband."

He continues “Finally, the monkey is off the back now,” was his reply when asked about the victory that KKR tasted for the first time in five editions. “The greatness of the team is how well they have gelled together. I know the boys have felt the pressure of working for a team of a film star. So, I am happy that the pressure is off,” he said. “(Gautam) Gambhir’s decision to stick to players who have not been in good form did wonders. The players kept backing each other. If today Jacques (Kallis) cannot perform, Manoj (Tiwary) will do the job or Yusuf (Pathan). Don’t be taken by the fact that only I have to go and play. That aspect helped the team.”

He also clarified about the brawl saying "“My fight is not with the association. It is with an individual. I don’t want to get into this. Neither am I with the association nor apologising to the association. If you are walking away and some comment is being directed at you, it is better to be thick-skinned and be silent. So, I have to be a little more patient. Every association has their rules and they should follow it.”

Khan also has plans of starting cricket academies in Bengal.

Five year ban - SRK @ Wankhede




Finally MCA has arrived at a feasible solution to the much hyped controversy. There was war of words and it seems to have settled down from what looked like a life time ban to a five year ban. Yes, Shah Rukh Khan will not be allowed in the premises of Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai for the next five years. BCCI has opted out of the controversy and have advised both MCA officials and Shah Rukh to ease it out and not continue the words war!

On Wednesday, the MCA filed a police complaint against the Bollywood star for abusing and assaulting its officials in an inebriated state; the Bollywood star, in turn, sought an apology from the association for security guards shoving his daughter and other kids around and its officials' "unpardonable" behaviour. 

The controversial event happened after the 32-run win by KKR over Mumbai Indians and after the match SRK was accompanied by a team of 20-30 kids and the issue happened when the kids tried to enter the stadium and the security officials at the ground tried to stop them at the boundary lines. SRK was etched when the security team did try to touch and 'manhandled' the kids in the name of security. SRK says "touched little girls in the garb of security". This led to an argument, in which Khan and his associates allegedly abused and shoved MCA officials and security guards. 


The MCA version differed greatly. In a complaint filed at Marine Drive police station, MCA secretary Nitin Dalal said Khan and his entourage "entered the ground without proper accreditation along with 15-20 boys". "When a young girl wished him... Mr Shah Rukh Khan abused her in most dirty and vulgar language (like f*** off)... an MCA watchman came forward and asked everyone to vacate the stadium. Shah Rukh charged at the watchman and hit him and continued to use abusive language like f*** MCA, f*** BCCI," the complaint asserted. 

Shahrukh says that he intervened only when he saw the security guards manhandling his kids and their friends who were playing near to the field. "It is unpardonable for security officials to physically touch little girls in the garb of security. I came downstairs to tell them not to misbehave with the children. It was the MCA officials who started the tirade, one gentleman came to the spot and said something in Marathi that is unrepeatable. That made me angry and if children with me are misbehaved with, I will behave this way time and again. Yes, I did get angry but I think the officials need to look at their own behaviour first." said the superstar in th press conference held at his home.

SRK denies that he was drunk and adds - "If this is the treatment that is meted out, I would not want to be there myself.... I will call Deshmukh. I will write a complaint about their behaviour." He also refuted allegations of him abusing a female fan. "It would be very small of me at this age and day to do something like that." 

Although Ravi Savanth continues to stay his ground and says "Shah Rukh Khan misbehaved and abused MCA security personnel as well as its officials, including our president, Vilasrao Deshmukh, after the match." Deshmukh added: "Despite (MCA) officials attempting to pacify him, Shah Rukh Khan attacked them and used abusive language. The MCA managing committee has recommended a ban and will take a final call."

Its still a big mystery but this is what it sums up to!
