Abhinav Kashyap, known for speaking out against Salman Khan in the past, has this time targeted superstar Shah Rukh Khan. In a recent interview, the ‘Dabangg’ director suggested that the ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’ actor should consider moving to Dubai. He criticised SRK, claiming he "only takes" and contributes little to society.
Kashyap on SRK’s Lifestyle and Properties
Speaking to Bollywood Thikana, Abhinav said, "This community knows only to take, not to give. They only take, take, and take more. Shah Rukh Khan's Dubai house is called Jannat, while the one here is called Mannat. What does that mean? All your mannatein (prayers) were answered here. He keeps making more prayers. I heard he is building two more floors on his bungalow. So the demands are increasing. But if your jannat (paradise) is there, go live there. What are you doing in India?"
Criticism of SRK’s ‘Jawan’ Dialogue
Abhinav also targeted a famous line from Shah Rukh’s 2023 film Jawan, saying, "Then he says lines in films like, 'bete ko haath lagaane se pehle baap se baat kar'. What do we talk to these people? They have created their palaces beyond the reach of the common man. What do I care what their net worth is? Do you give me food? Shah Rukh may be a well-spoken person but neeyat uski bhi gadbad hi hai (his intentions are also wrong)."
Who is Abhinav Kashyap?
Abhinav Kashyap, brother of filmmaker Anurag Kashyap, began his career as a screenwriter with Jung. He made his directorial debut in Bollywood with Dabangg, starring Salman Khan, which became a major hit. He later directed Besharam with Ranbir Kapoor but has not returned to directing films since.
Shah Rukh Khan’s Current and Upcoming Projects
Shah Rukh Khan recently won the Best Actor award at the 71st National Film Awards for Jawan. On the work front, he is preparing for the action thriller King, set to release in 2027. The film will reunite him with director Siddharth Anand and co-star his daughter Suhana Khan, Deepika Padukone, and Abhishek Bachchan. SRK was last seen in Rajkumar Hirani's comedy film Dunki.
