Pathaan: Here’s why some Twitterati want to boycott Shah Rukh Khan

A month prior to his next big release – Pathaan, King of Bollywood has fallen in the pit of controversy. #BoycottShahRukhKhan is the top trend on Twitter today as some netizens question “Why praise Pathaan in India?”

Ahead of the release, some Twitterati allege that the Bollywood star has hurt some religious sentiments, over and over again. They shared images, news clippings and incidents from the past where Khan was seen either speaking in support of Pakistani cricket players or speaking of intolerance in India.
