Mumbai, Jul 17: Looks like the Shiv Sena Vs Shah Rukh Khan war of words is back among the headlines. King Khan, who has often been on the receiving end of Sena's ire over various issues, finds himself in a soup yet again, this time over a party he threw on the fateful night of July 13.
In yet another controversial write-up, Shiv Sena mouth piece 'Saamna' stated that Shah Rukh Khan, instead of showing sympathy towards blasts victims and mourning for them, was celebrating Katrina Kaif's birthday on the night of the July 13 blasts. He has shown utter disrespect to the victims, their familes and the nation, the paper said.
According to Saamna, King Khan was celebrating Katrina's birthday on Friday, July 15, with a private screening of her latest movie 'Zindagi na Milegi Dobara', even as three blasts shook the city.
Saamna also accused several other Bollywood personalities of indulging in similar actions, thereby showing disrespect and insensitivity towards Mumbai blast victims. Hrithik Roshan, Farhan Akhtar, Arjun Rampal, Chunky Pandey, Abhay Deol, Katrina Kaif, Karan Johar were the among the other stars who were celebrating the birthday.
The paper praised former Miss World Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, for postponing the presentation of the honour bestowed upon her by the French Government on the day of the blasts.
Shah Rukh was not available for comments. But, earlier he tweeted that he enjoyed the super celebration on Friday night.
It is not the first time that Shiv Sena has targeted Shah Rukh Khan. Earlier Bala Saheb Thackarey had criticised King Khan for commenting on Thackarey's demand for excluding Pakistani cricketers from IPL.
