Soldiers should not die for unnecessary reasons: Shahrukh Khan

Shahrukh KhanReacting to reports about the barbaric killing of two Indian soldiers by Pakistani troops at the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir, actor Shah Rukh Khan says he feels deeply sad, and India should take a ‘hard’ stand.

“Things like country, politics, sports, war, border should be kept different… (he recalled that his earlier remarks on sports had raised a controversy) In a country so volatile, where the youth demand a hard stand… which is a good thing in a democracy. I don’t want to participate in anything of which we both don’t have knowledge. I think you and I should be looking at methods to end this strife at the border,” the thespian said.

“I have been watching TV, where people are saying “haan sabak sikha denge” (let’s teach them a lesson). That is completely wrong. It is sad, soldiers should not die for unnecessary reasons. We should take a hard stand. We should be very clear and whoever does wrong, should have to account for it and be put to the test. As an Indian, I am deeply saddened,” Khan said.

In a brazen violation of the decade-old ceasefire, Pakistani troops intruded into Jammu and Kashmir and killed two Indian soldiers Tuesday.

  • @salman you are very naive and beyond help. Many people in India are intellectually smart enough to know how much damage a nuclear bomb can do and god forbid one should land near our homes. Its easy saying lets go to war but you are asking unbeknown to you other peoples sons and daughters to sacrifice their lives for the rage burning inside you against Pakistan. People in cities, towns and villages across both sides of the border may not be upto date with current affairs and most likely it is these innocent people who get bombed and have their lives changed forever. For people like you Salman, going to war is easy when someone else in uniform does it for you but to offer a hand in peace is difficult as you need a clear conscience. May god help us all and lets pray that one day we can have everlasting peace between two neighbouring nations.

  • @SALMAN
    pakistan is not a backstabber it’s india. pakistanis want peace indians attack them. tell me this why is india army using muslims as a shield, they know pakistanis would never attack them? that is an act that shows their cowardliness. I am not showing any concern for you, i am concerned about pakistan, that how bad they have been shown, even though indians are not one step ahead them. you say that pakistanis are bad, then why don’t you become a soldier. no! you are even scared of death. you even know the truth that indian army are using muslims as a shield, so that means indians are big cowards.

  • @filman u moron india never discriminate muslims.. India is nt using muslims as a sheild these muslim are patriotic towards india they want to serve their nation even in our cricket team there are a lot of muslim fellows lyk yusuf pathan, zaheer khan, irfan pathan etc..
    We indians love and respect each other’s religion and celebrate every festival unlyk pakistan who humiliate hindus in pakisan and destroys their temples..
    Pakistan is a big coward & whole world knows it..

  • good joke. looks like you have never gone to kashmir. go there and you will know whose a moron. there your army uses muslims. looks like you don’t know about your own country, so that proves that you people don’t know anything nor care about anyone in kashmir. if you would have cared then you would have known everything that happens around there. you respect other religions I know but trust me, I went kashmir, I pity that you people are calling us coward but hiding behind muslims. You people in cities might not know about it but pakistan knows it as they can see it. you say you respect other religion then why don’t you people do anything about it. the day you do anything, you would earn mine and pakistan’s respect.

  • We dnt want to earn pakistan’s respect..
    Everyday we get to know that 116 pakistani killed in bomb blast in islamabad,lahore etc etc pakistan is demolishing itself why do we need to respect a country who is demolishing itself..
    Bloody losers..

  • oh don’t go to rape, cause I know about the delhi gang rape. nobody says bombs are from pakistanis but of course you won’t understand. you people are the one who really are losers and ediots. you don’t want to earn pakistan respect, who cares but don’t expect respect back. your indians soldiers are killed and indians are saying that they should not be killed for no reason, meaning they wanted respect, believe it or not. ediot!

  • We r making big mark in abroad ous stars lyk srk, salman, aamir, hrithik are apreciated there even “life of pie” staring irfan khan and tabu won golden globe awards and nominated in 9 categories in oscars.. Wat abt pakistan’s film industry there is no any international recognized star frm pakistani film industry such a bunch of losers..

  • Pakistani film industry developed much later than bollywood. Bol and Khuda Ke Liye became big hits out side pakistan. why don’t you talk about singing. your country is filled with pakistanis nsinger. atif aslam, rahat fateh ali khan. pakistanis don’t even have any good source to learn singing from but still they defeated indians in the show called ‘Sur Kshetra’.
    indians are bunch of idiots who worship actors. many actors such as rajnikanth, amitabh bachchan, rajesh khanna are placed next to god or equal. I can’t believe that you people worship actors. this proves how big ediots indians are. Even if you don’t many other indians do.
    The whole world knows that indians are just show-offs and are at the hieght of stupidity.

  • How did SRK give comments on a national issue before messiah Aamir Khan? Is Aamir waiting to take this up in his next season of Satyamev Jayate and will speak only if offered 4 crore to speak? Ha!
