Shah Rukh Khan was prohibited from entering MCA properties, including the Wankhede Stadium, for a period of five years. This happened after he was involved in an altercation with the security staff. However, after three years, the ban was withdrawn.

Even after more than a decade of the incident, one question still lingers on the minds of many Bollywood and cricket fans. What exactly happened that night at Wankhede Stadium when Shah Rukh Khan lost his temper? The said infamous fight still remains a talking point. It has once again resurfaced in the public domain as the former support staff of the superstar’s IPL team, the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), has spilled new information.

What did staff personnel say?

The fight was naturally brought up again as KKR prepared to take on the Mumbai Indians at Wankhede Stadium. Joy Bhattacharjya took to X and posted about the match on Friday, writing, “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!”

Replying to which, a user claimed that the team has been “cursed” since the day Shah Rukh “abused” the security guard. The user later deleted his tweet. Joy went on to explain the incident, saying that Shah Rukh’s outburst was a father’s response to his daughter being catcalled. Suhana Khan was with Shah Rukh at the time of the incident.

“KKR won two championships after that incident. And he did not abuse me; I was there. And the next time, stay calm when someone cat calls your young daughter,” Joy wrote.

What SRK explained

Shah Rukh Khan had previously described the events leading up to the incident and claimed that he was set off by a religiously charged word uttered by a member of the security personnel. The superstar had said he was “very angry and upset.”

“My kids were there and I thought someone… Maybe they had a rule: hatao yaha se. I told him, these are our kids and we are taking them. I just said this:. There was a person there who said a word that I, as a Delhi person, felt was an abusive word. Even though the same word in Marathi is also rude,. Thoda sa religious, galat tha woh (It was religious, it was wrong). I then lost my cool, main pagal hogaya and I went to hit him,” the actor had said in an old appearance on Aap Ki Adalat.
