SRK says sorry for smoking, to pay fine


NEW DELHI: Bollywood actor and co-owner of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) Shah Rukh Khan has pleaded guilty for smoking in public during a match between Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders, said new reports.
The actor said he's ready to pay fine.
The actor was directed by a local court in Jaipur to appear before it on May 26.
A few days back, India's premier anti-tobacco watchdog, NOTE has expressed concern over superstar's arrogant behaviour with which he time and again decides to "trample" the law and smoke in public places.
Shekhar Salkar, General Secretary, National Organisation for Tobacco Eradication had said that Shah Rukh's recent smoking in a stadium at Rajasthan during IPL indicates 'his careless attitude towards his responsibilities as an influential personality.'
