"Someone Catcalls Your Young Daughter...": Ex-KKR Official On Shah Rukh Khan's Outburst At Wankhede

The Kolkata Knight Riders face Mumbai Indians in an IPL 2024 match at the Wankhede Stadium on Friday. While KKR are sitting comfortably in the second spot with 12 points from nine games, MI are at the ninth spot in the 10-team table with six points from 10 games. KKR, Wankhede Stadium and KKR co-owner Shah Rukh Khan have a bit of a history. Shah Rukh was banned from entering the Wankhede in May 2012 after a scuffle and heated altercation with a security guard and the MCA officials following an IPL game in which Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) beat the Mumbai Indians.

After the 2012 IPL game between KKR and Mumbai Indians, a police complaint was registered against the Bollywood superstar for voluntarily causing hurt and for intimidation. However, since it was a non-cognizable offence, SRK wasn't arrested.

Shah Rukh Khan though, said that he was provoked after security guards touched a group of children he was accompanying, which included his daughter.

Shah Rukh Khan's five-year ban on entering the Wankhede Stadium was officially lifted by the Mumbai Cricket Association in 2015.

Now, ex-KKR team team director Joy Bhattacharjya opened up on the issue on Friday. Commenting on a post on the incident,  Bhattacharjya wrote: "The last time KKR beat MI at the Wankhede, I was still a part of that dugout. It's been a while, but today might just be the day! KKR won two championships after that incident. And he did not abuse, I was there. And the next time, stay calm when someone cat calls your young daughter."
