Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan today said that major Bollywood stars
stayed silent on Padmaavat controversy not out of fear but to avoid
hurting the film's chances at the box office. The Sanjay Leela
Bhansali-directed film faced a lot of trouble ahead of its January 25
release as various Rajput groups were up in arms against the movie
over its portrayal of Queen Padmavati and Rajput honour.
Shah Rukh said the perception that the industry does not unite in
times of crisis is wrong. "Sometimes, when people are going in an
'uprising', you should just stand back. Nobody is scared, fearful or
hiding their own skin as is said about Bollywood stars, 'Oh these
people just want to earn money and not do anything for the society.'
No. We love our society, we make entertaining films and we want our
society to be happy," he said at the 'Media - Shaping the Future and
Entertainment' panel discussion at Magnetic Maharashtra event.
