Bal Thackeray slams SRK for 'misdemeanour' at Wankhede

Shiv Sena supremo Bal Thackeray Saturday criticised Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan for what he termed was his 'misdemeanour' at the Wankhede Stadium Wednesday night and backed the Mumbai Cricket Association's (MCA) decision to ban him from the stadium for five years.

lashing out at Shah Rukh Khan in his party mouthpiece 'Saamna', Thackeray said Shah Rukh was insulted several times by the US security officials, but he kept quiet then. "He did not lose his cool there, but when a poor security guard asked him to follow rules, he threatened to bury him alive. What kind of language is thisIJ" Thackeray asked.

Thackeray also appreciated the five-year ban on Shah Rukh's entry to the Wankhede Stadum and said that a lifetime ban should be imposed on him. The Shiv Sena supremo said that ban was reduced to five years due to pressure from New Delhi.

"If pressure comes from Delhi, it will be further reduced to five minutes," he quipped.

The MCA Friday slapped a ban for five years on Shah Rukh from entering the Wankhede Stadium over his alleged bad behaviour at the stadium.

Shah Rukh, the co-owner of Indian Premier league (IPl) team Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), had allegedly misbehaved with security personnel and MCA officials Wednesday night.

Shah Rukh claimed the security guards manhandled the children he had brought to the stadium, which provoked him to protest.
