SRK defends Salman's performance in Mulayam's village Saifai
January 10, 2014 11:12
Actor Salman Khan, pilloried for performing at the Saifai Mahotsav in Uttar Pradesh where thousands of people in riot-hit Muzaffarnagar are struggling to survive, has found an unlikely ally in Shah Rukh Khan.
"I wouldn't take a moral high ground on it," Shah Rukh Khan said at an event on Thursday evening.
"I have performed earlier, not knowing the situation in the area... I have seen on news what's happening and I can understand the media's point of view but it's unfair to nitpick on Bollywood for everything. We are performers and that's our job."
The two actors had a public falling out in 2008 and have barely spoken since then. More of that here.
