In yet another incident that highlighted Shahrukh Khan’s unpunctuality, journalists in Chennai boycotted an event to promote Happy New Year.
The press conference at the ITC Grand Chola was supposed to begin at 4:30PM on Friday, but the superstar only arrived at the venue at 8PM.
Sources say, while a few angry journalists left at around 6:30PM after waiting for more than 2 and a half hours, the others started raising a voice after Khan arrived and then walked out.
SRK couldn’t pacify the journalists even though he promised each media representative an exclusive interaction with him.
There have been several incidents in the past when journalists have raised their and questioned Shahrukh on making them wait for hours. Back in 2011, Khan had apologised to the media saying “I am extremely sorry. I apologise for being late and next time I will make sure the information is passed on to everyone. I think it deserves an apology first. So I say sorry, and I’ll make sure the information is reached out to everyone next time”
Update: We have been informed by a journalist in Chennai that there was some miscommunication between the event organisers and the media. The event was supposed to start after 7 and SRK arrived at 7:45PM.
SRK
SRK we love you :)
Those losers like loki,romance and zeeshan who are barking on Bang Bang articles should know that Bang Bang is still a better movie than ce and ra1 .
despite being the world’s biggest Superstar he is still appologizing .. such humilty .. such greatness.
#HailKingKhan ??
He was busy sweeping the streets for our swachh bharat as he was not invited by our PM Narendra modi lol or else another publicity stunts for movie so it can be in the news
This kind of boycott (for no big reason) happens in every SHAHRUKH-SALMAN movies……
still hny will do bumper buissness in south………
wowww what an inspiration srk is, his fans must be incorporating srk’s punctuality in their lives lol. wow what hard work and dedication. Akshay Kumar was never late for anything in his life, be it shooting or premiere or promotion. he is the first one to reach. boycott hny yes! srk thinks he can come as much late as he wants and he will escape with it.
he uses the name of chennai in his film to get a success but he disrespects chennai media by coming late
All publicity stunt…
will be interesting to see how srk fans take this matter
Ghamandi King.
I have already boycott watching the trailer & Indiawaale song of HNY on TV. I had smashed the remote control & removed SRK & Abhishek Bachchan from my ‘Celeb’ List.
f^^k off journalists, king doesn’t need you, the name is enough!!
Nipun- Only 2 SRK fans Bashing bang bang……but all Salman fans bashing Bang bang can’t you see that????
He is very unpunctual…even his close friends say that..
I watched the video when in 2011,the journalists boycotted him…nd he was looking damn embarresed,i have never seen srk like that..who is always so confident and jovial…his head was down by shame.
Who started the craze of 6 packs ? Ans. SRK (darde disco)
.who will finish the era of 6 packs and start an era of 10 packs ? Ans: SRK ! (hny) ! Record create krke khud hi us record ko torne wale ko shahrukh kahatein hain!
@www: replying to salmanfans is useless. I laugh when they comment on Bang Bang article.
This kind of things happens many times…no need to debate about it….rather than debate about 16 people committed suicide in protest of JAYLALITAs arrest in TN.It makes sense.
KICK Kicked CE & After dat PK Will Kick HNY…
Kahan Ka King.
the real superstar hrithik roshan.
media boycotted salman and now srk,
all khans r pathetic losers fighting among themselves.
happy new year is also a big budget movie like bang bang..budget-150cr.
if it get mixed or negative reviews like bang bang then it will crashed…
Don’t worry king khan we all with you. No need to these mauka parast journalist who needs only money and showing fake news 24/7 whole year………….
If they were US Media or a lady gaga event, he would arrived at the place before the time. Such a ghamandi person! Jis Bartan Se Khate Hain, Wohi Bartan Mein Ched!
Smokes in Public Places, Comes Late in Events! What an inspiring icon!!
@Nipun Kumar, same here. We ROFL when u review film and say anything… Because they are too childish..
Some morons are continuously bashing ce without any reason.. Ce had the best word of mouth atleast among the biggies of last year.. And if bang bang is better than ce then it should cross 218 crs lifetime of ce with 3 open weeks.. And if it cant cross ce then bang bang is a bigger crap as a self proclaimed intelligent movie lover is calling ce crap..
It is not surprising bcoz Srk even came late in an event in the past where he launched a wrist watch.
Being a fan of someone is different from thinking someone as roll model. To me ,he is the best in Entertainment department. Brings enough smile and craziness while watching him performing either on screen or on stage. That’s it. It ends there.
Not sure why SRK haters always drag his fans for all of his other non entertainment actions.
Bang bang is better than kick… It’ll be the second highest grosser of 2014 after HNY… Lallu fans kicked first by SR n now bang bang
He is the only star in Bollywood who don’t deserve to be e role model…There is nothing we can inspire from him or learn from him…
Dirty promotion of HNY. A childish behaviour.
V Shantabai (V stands for what? Virgin Salman fan?)

@nipun-yes you are right their comments doesn’t make any sense -_-
