SRK Speaks 1st time about Mumbai Tragedy

Mumbai: Shah Rukh Khan has spoken for the first time about his thoughts on the Mumbai atrocities. Speaking exclusively to Raj and Pablo for this Saturday’s (6 December) ‘Love Bollywood’ Show on BBC Asian Network, Shah Rukh speaks openly about why he hasn’t talked about the attacks till now as well as his views on what the younger generation of Muslims should be concentrating on.

Shah Rukh said "I’ve tried to keep away from commenting on this as there are no words to express a situation like this because our feelings are mixed with anger, disbelief and sadness."

In light of the horrific attacks, Shah Rukh went on to give his thoughts on religion and the younger Muslim generation. "Being Muslim myself, I believe youngsters need to understand Islam and respect the religion in the right way.

It’s such a huge waste and my appeal to all in these times and in recent years is that please can we run what we want in terms of politics, government, jobs and teaching our children with the prime motive of taking communalism out of it. I think no agenda should be attached to any kind of religion."

Shah Rukh spoke passionately about his views on what he feels should be the only religion the nations’ children should follow - ‘work’; he goes on to say, "The religion our children are born with should be something they practice as a discipline and work should be developed as the new religion."

Excatly. Take out ‘religion’, ‘caste’ and ‘creed’ from each & every form we have to fill. No religion teaches to kill. Also, boycott every political party or political person who wants to come to power in the name of religion. The Nation & its well-being should be our true religion.

Comment by Maleka — December 3, 2008 @ 5:54 am

We all respect our Movie star and we hardly see them releated with any religion. I know their reservation and their choice to stay out of politics and religion. But, may be in this time, these role models have to be laud and create an atmosphere in the society that we do not tolerate terrorisum in the name of religion. Once this message of mass will be heard by terrorist, which might make them feel that their effort is useless and all Indians including Muslim, hates them and their work.
Muslim leader has to be laud on that.

Comment by Sanjay Kumar — December 3, 2008 @ 5:54 am

I agree with SRK, about his thoughts.

Comment by Bhakti — December 3, 2008 @ 6:02 am

It is sad to see event like these happening. The main reason is politics. Taking innocent lives or torturing, abusing and oppressing human being is never permitted in religions, it is only these power hungry people who do anything and everything for their own fame and egos by misleading people around them. There is no excuse to live in harmony and peace. Everyone should stop listening to these corrupt politicians or so called religious leaders(all religions), who have nothing better to do than keep people devided on, religion, region, cast or color to have control. People should unite without these idiots who preach hate and follow devide and rule policy. World will be better without them. Suffering of human being must end. Helping orphan Children growing up on the streets and going hungry or left to die on the side of the road, abused women, destitute sick and poor people should be our priority. There is no hope for them and it is a shame that we as humans behave like animals in this day and age. I am ashamed to be a human.

Dear Khan, spare us the lecture on ‘peaceful’ Islam and stick to your acting. Everybody knows what this religion propagates and how this religion spread through the centuries. Even you would not have been a muslim were it not for the threat of a sword over your ancestor’s head.

Comment by Anil Mathew — December 3, 2008 @ 6:31 am

How does SRK know it is done by Muslims or Hindus or Jews. What does he know about Islam. He can dance and play with Bebos thys infront of millions and talks about Islam. What a pity

Comment by Mohammed — December 3, 2008 @ 6:34 am

Does this mean anything right now ?
I mean the attack was by a terrorist organization on India…where does religion come into picture . religion is between man and god. The moment its considered a community, then comes the discrimination, where a person who looks at god through your perspective is a Bhaai, whereas the other is a kaafir.
Do you think the people who shot the police knew if the policeman was hindu or muslim ? he only knew him as an Indian. Hindu means son of Hind, hence every Indian , weather its muslim, christian, buddhist, sikh , sanatan dharmi , jain is a Hindu…well thats my perspective, but each one to his own

I appreciate the balance thought process this young icon of India proclaims who is not only looked upon in India but most of the civilised world.His comment carries lots of weight. yes a terrorist doesn’t have any religion & should not be labelled as muslims ‘coz the word itself means friend.Long live our nation & our civilised younger generation.

Comment by Shaz — December 3, 2008 @ 6:41 am

SHAHRUKH WAS QUIET BECAUSE HEIS SCARED OF LOOSING MUSLIM AUDIENCES FOR HIS MOVIE “RAB NE BANA DI JODI”, ESPECIALLY MUSLIM AUDIENCES FROM PAKISTAN…..MOTHER FUCKER, DESHDROHI, SELFISH BASTARD SHAHRUKH KHAN..

Comment by AJAY — December 3, 2008 @ 6:44 am

He is always pro muslim and terrorists, he run after paki cricket players and the only producer to show hindu as terrorist in his movie ‘main hoon…’, a very biased person and anti-Indian by heart.

Comment by Indian — December 3, 2008 @ 6:44 am

Hats off to king Khan,,,

Shahrukh says it correctly as he himself works so hard… for films, for programmes, for everthing. and he is right WORK must become main religion than Hindu Muslims. The reservations must be banned and equality must be opted. but who will bail the cat? Who listens to Shahrukh?

Comment by mahesh — December 3, 2008 @ 6:49 am

Is it the time for Mr. Sharukh Khan to teach or explain the Islam now?
Is it first time happening in Mumbai or In India?
How many times Mr. Sharukh Khan has condemned the killings
of the innocent Hindus in Kashmir? Do anyone remember?
And for how long this is going on?
Mr. Sharukh Khan brtter keep quiet and when U get the
time from your busy schedule introspect yourself and think
how sincere your thoughts and views about the Terrorism, particularly
about the Islamic Terrorists who calls themselves as Jihaadis.

Comment by sunitks — December 3, 2008 @ 6:54 am

Very well spoken, Shah Rukh. Indeed, the ethic of ‘work’ is the root of the ambition and hope that we see in modern India today.
Congress, Communalism, terror and babri masjid is not what made India the rising star of the global economy that it is today. It was the hard - very hard - work of our professionals.
Lets show em!

Comment by Amit — December 3, 2008 @ 7:00 am

Taking your two quotes -
1) “the younger generation of Muslims should be concentrating on”
Taking further from the above quote……

Mr. Khan appreciate your thoughts for the younger generations of muslim clans…….however your teaching should not be limited to muslims only it should go beyond muslims, hnidus and rest of committed citizens of India.

2) “I’ve tried to keep away from commenting on this as there are no words to express a situation like this because our feelings are mixed with anger, disbelief and sadness.”
Being politically correct is not bad, but a wrong did of this magnitude can always be condemd.

Comment by Surya — December 3, 2008 @ 7:00 am

its SRK is Muslim he is KAFIR……. do agree younster should understand ISLAM very well, one who Knows ISLAM he will not do the TERROR attack because killing innocent people is HARAM in Islam…… Fidayen attack is Haram in ISLAM ALLAH will not fogive whoevers behind this TERROR attack. ITS HARAM HARAM HARAM you cann’t Kill innocent people.

i don’t know its drama of BJP our LET attacks but its HARAM……….. belive me i am muslim and i know basic concept of ISLAM and but what was done its BIG HARAM

Forget about SRK,Salman and other musilm actors working in film industries its self is HARAM, SRK dn’t have any knowledge of ISLAM if has woul quit the film industry

Comment by IL — December 3, 2008 @ 7:01 am

SRK is a Big C !

Comment by Cool — December 3, 2008 @ 7:04 am

I agree with shahrukh khan thoughts. But whatever is happening in country BJP RSS, VHP and Shive Sena is behind it, because their ideology create terrorism which we have seen in past like Godhra in Gujarat, Malegaon, Ajmer and other places. All these politician wants to spilit our country by religion which is impossible. Since Babri Masjid demolised in 1992, terrorism increased, one more reason is there always police catch the innocent people so this is also a big cause of increasing terrorist activities.

Comment by Waseem — December 3, 2008 @ 7:15 am

Shah Rukh Khan has not pointed a finger against Islamabad and the terror cells operated by the ISI. Also, he is too scared to mention the names of the fugitives like Dawood Ibrahim in his statement. I am sure he cannot speak against his masters, who have been financing many of the bollywood ventures for decades. His words fail to show his solidarity with the innocent victims of this bizarre and dastardly act by the Islamic terrorists. I do not blame SRK, as he is just an ordinary citizen of India, who cannot influence these senseless Islamic terrorists.

I am wondering what happened to Yusuf Bhai (Dilip Kumar). Is he still very happy with his Nishan-E- Pak? Let him learn a lesson from the life of Late Ravindra Nath Tagore and show his solidarity with India and its people.

Comment by Mahesh Somani — December 3, 2008 @ 7:15 am

I like the concept that work should be made a religion. “Work is Worship”.

Also youngsters should have access to the best schools. School fees should be free/halved or even waived for brilliant students. “Knowledge is Power”.

The fundamentals of all religion are the same. The fundamentals need to be instilled.

Indians should live like Indians. It should not matter if you are from Bombay or North India. It should not matter if you are Hindu or Christians. (Orissa). It should not matter if you are Hindu or Muslim. (Godra) It should not matter if you are rich or poor (Naxals).

The common man on the streets should be more vigilant than the cops. After all what is the ratio of cops to people? “Neighbourhood Watch” should be set up in every locality.

As long as people are ready to sacrifice their lives i.e get killed for money or religion violence cannot be avoided. Only education and work can turn these suicide bombers into crusaders of love.

SRK doesn’t want to condemn the killers, and blames it on the system?

Comment by Sunil — December 3, 2008 @ 7:22 am

Rightly, said work is the only religion the present and future generation should look for. Religions were creations of ancient world, we have to make them as museum artifacts . They were constitution of ancient world. We are spoiling our present by looking into our past. We need to work together for a future which demands a different constitution. Today in this modern world old constitution cannot fit in anymore. We always have to change and evolve with time.
I hope a movement starts within the heart of every human on this planet earth that makes them realize and respect humans and work rather then follow age old religious belief

Comment by Mitesh Lad — December 3, 2008 @ 7:24 am

No religion teaches hatred and violence and Islam particularly encourages peace. Why should we give so much importance to SRK comments. He simply an actor,not a politician and in film world religion, whatever is just a label. None thre adhere to religion as such.
His comments are anyway good.

Comment by Alamgeer — December 3, 2008 @ 7:26 am

Shah Rukh Khan - As diplomatic as always.

Comment by sg — December 3, 2008 @ 7:36 am

Hi! Shah Rukh,

Only muslim are allowed to comment, which you are not.
so just shut up.

and how can you assum that it is hand work of muslim,have you got super inteligence report.
fuck you.

Comment by Mohan Joshi — December 3, 2008 @ 8:01 am

I totaly agree with SRK, becoz today’s youth is intelligent , smart, well eqipped with knowledge, their energy levels are high, so that energy should be channalised in the positive way towards betterment of society.
These terrorist have no religion, neither they belong to Islam nor to any country, no matter what in which country they are trained into.
As our youth are well acquainted with latest Hi tech devices, their knowledge should be used in the the well being of the society and we shud not only defence terrorism but we should confront it, to remove the fear factor from the minds of people.
No passion so eventually robs the mind of all powers of acting & reasoning as fear.
Now our slogan shud be Work is Religion(Worship),Islam never teaches to do terror but it shows the path to reach the NOOR The god.Divinity manifests itself in the form of Light.

Our constitution says ‘of the people, for the people, by the people’ and our so-called politicians talk ‘of themselves, for themselves and buy themselves(comfort, of course!)’. They are running one money spinning business at our cost. So, to how many of them will you really point fingers at? Let’s wake up - not for one particular caste, state or religion but for the benefit of all of us and make this globally recognised country, OUR VERY OWN INDIA , a corrupt free place to start with.

Comment by Mano — December 3, 2008 @ 9:01 am

Please come ahead and do you part of job being a celebrity and being a sensible muslim.

I undrstand that just because I am a hindu I cannot control any xyz who is a Hindu to do certain things or to not do certain things. But yes if I am a celebrity and a Hindu and convey something strongly to my community it would be heard atleast; if I convey something to another community they are going to misinterpret that only.

So come ahead; give it a try; convey strongly.

You are successful because you worked hard for that, day and night; you had no Godfather, no Cine Family, nothing.

Convey that…. each Hindu doing well is not doing so because he is a pampered Hindu and countless poor downtrodden Hindus are not blaming any other community for their pathetic conditions; thier own people have not spared them or simply luck has not been good enough.

Just convey to stop the blame game.

yes, khan is right, i agree with him, there is no religeon of terrorist they dont think if a muslim is killed or hindu is killed, there objective is to keep terror in the heart of people.
i am muslim but firstly i am an Indian and it is true..there should be no poitics on there type of acciedent… it is most bed spot on civilization.

SRK has given a very restrictive comment ” work”. We the educated people have to have a resolve that (a) We learn to excercise our vote for selfless educated patriots of our country. (b) Be vocal to equip our security forces with most modern gear & arms. (c) Create social awareness & patriotrism. (e) Create education,employment & physical fitness programme. (d) Last but not the least make militry training compulsarry for all youngsters after class 10 or 12.

Comment by Mashkoor Khan — December 3, 2008 @ 9:14 am

Hi,

I do accept with the statement work should be given the prime consent, but is the process of getting job in India so fair, why don’t we accept the truth and improve the system so that the next generation,does not have to believe these illetrate scholars ,so called religious scholars, who brain wash them, take advantage them in desperate situation ,to make them do things which is against humanity.

To be honest, first safe gaurd your own house and then point fingers to others. If we as a nation try to focus more on nation ,rather than the bloody cheap ploticis full of illetrates who are fighting for the dam seat, then such situtation will not arise,nobody can take advantage.

In this situation the political parties blaming each other will not help,instead they should unite and fight for the cause.

Jai Hind

Comment by mishra hemendra — December 3, 2008 @ 9:17 am

New religion be “work” is a good thought but this is easily said and not done. I am sure all this hype is only for a month and then people, media, politician, myself everyone will forget everything. The same thing has happened every time, nothing new. If the government believes it’s “Pakistan” that has done this than why give a list of people to them and ask them to handover them. Instead get in the heart of the country and drag them to India and hang them in public. But this won’t happen because the decision makers don’t have to fight with the gun and don’t have to face the bullets. The real terrorist are not those 10 young boys but these weak and illiterate politicians. Bigger once are we who elect these fools and cowards.

Pass a rule in the constitution a very simple rule and everything will be fine and there will nothing but peace in India. “The rule must be that every time there is a terrorist attack like this top politicians of that province must immediately reach the spot and fight with the terrorist along with the cops just like they too are cops. Mind you without any bullet proof jacket and with those old guns.” Now see if there is fire behind their butt how things will start functioning smoothly. Put this law for a year and you will see the results.

I pray for the dead and brave.

Comment by Anil Castelino — December 3, 2008 @ 9:25 am

Did you know that there is a system in our constitution, as per the 1969 act, in section “49-O” that a person can go to the polling booth, confirm his identity, get his finger marked and convey to the presiding election officer that he doesn’t want to vote for anyone!

Yes such a feature is available, but obviously these seemingly notorious leaders have never disclosed it. This is called “49-O”.

Why should you go and say “I VOTE NOBODY”… because, in a ward, if a candidate wins, say by 123 votes, and that particular ward has received “49-O” votes more than 123, then that polling will be cancelled and will have to be re-polled. Not only that, but the candidature of the contestants will be removed and they cannot contest the re-polling, since people had already expressed their decision on them. This would bring fear into parties and hence look for genuine candidates for their parties for election. This would change the way, of our whole political system… it is seemingly surprising why the election commission has not revealed such a feature to the public….

Please spread this news to as many as you know… Seems to be a wonderful weapon against corrupt parties in India… show your power, expressing your desire not to vote for anybody, is even more powerful than voting… so don’t miss your chance. So either vote, or vote not to vote (vote 49-O) and pass this info on…

“Please forward this mail to as many as possible, so that we, the people of India , can really use this power to save our nation”. Use your voting right for a better INDIA.

Nobody is going to ask your view on this Mr SRK because every one knows that you
Have a soft corner to PAKISTAN, that is why YOU ASK PAKISTAN’S ACTORS/SINGERS TO WORK IN YOUR FILMS as we all know that there are lot of better actors are there in our (not yours) country. You never criticize Islamic ATANKWAAD, rather you insist for a better future of them.

Comment by Indian — December 3, 2008 @ 9:46 am

Dear Shahrukh, well spoken. Its time now we Indians rise above cast/creed/religion, and work together for a strong and tolerant India. Terrorists have no religion. They are misguided and directionless youth without anything concrete, but just hatred for other religions. We must not harbour hatred for any religion, as any true religion is-humanity and love for all brothers and sisters.

Comment by pankaj — December 3, 2008 @ 9:47 am

Everyone,

Remember onething.Shahrukh is very knowledgable.I am Muslim,proud to be Muslim.Dont encourage terrorism.hate and Disturb with what happen to my city Mumbai.

As a religion let me make one thing clear.no Religion teach bad things.When some one misinterpretes words written in quran and try to influence vulnerable people- i am scare.

I respect every religion.I get along 95% of time with all hindus.My wife was hindu.
After seeing mumbai- i feel government should attack POK and destroy terrorist.Government should not just talk.They should make the walk and than talk.

In regards to shahrukh ,please do not use bad words.He is th smartest person when come to logics.
Thanks and Regards’

Comment by Rizwan Sayed — December 3, 2008 @ 9:48 am

We Indians are not biased about religion, region, language, cast… etc. We only believe in India…. I don’t think we need we need to something more to prove that.
We seen SRK, Amir khan, Salman khan Akshay, Hritik and all super star as Indian we don’t try to search a Hindu or Muslim in him when we see playing Irfan Pathan , Zahir khan , Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid we don’t see a Hindu, Muslim, Marathi, Gujrati, North Indian or South Indian in him.. we pray for his success only because we see him as an Indian who is doing his job for our country…

These are only politicians who try to divide us. These politicians have no ethics…. they worry for their self interest always.. and use our emotions based on cast, religion, regions and language..

That is problem of our nation.

Comment by Prahlad Kumar Sharma — December 3, 2008 @ 9:57 am

SRK is right but can all Muslims actors of India like Javed Akhtar & Shabana Azmi will agree with SRK. Bcoz there are many muslims celebreties in India who supports secularsim but for them secularism is Anti Hindu things, thats all. In today,s India it is really remove Islaam terrorism from India bcoz all these things are getting learnt in Madarsas and Mosques.

Comment by Ravi (Bangalore) — December 3, 2008 @ 10:01 am

SRK is trying to hive away the topic of terrorism and islam, but the truth is that islam, unfortunately has started breeding terrorism. Teachings of Islam do suggest killing in the name of religion and this is evident in all parts of the world. My suggestion to SRK and the other millions of non violent muslims is to stop fooling your selves and the public and adress the short comings in Islam. I might sound politically in-correct however the proof of the pudding is in its eating and islamic terrorism is thriving all across the globe.

Comment by Ajay Sawhney — December 3, 2008 @ 10:03 am

Where SRKs official condemning statement? Why do muslim actors and leaders go into hiding when this kind of stuff happens and respond days or weeks later? They do they condemn openly Islamophobia regularly but not terrorism regularly?

Comment by Amar — December 3, 2008 @ 10:05 am

You should speak aloud against such terrorism and PAKISTAN as well. IF you are truly love INDIA. Whatever you speak is just formality.

Comment by Indian — December 3, 2008 @ 10:05 am

Man, it don’t think that it was a religious attack or anything.. if it is then it should be in mander or masjid why in Hotels. It was a political attack… what will happen… Politician will name it a religious attack then again same fights in the name of religion and who will die is public, not single politician.. so don’t name it any kind of religious attack.. If you SRK being a muslim cann’t think to attack like this then i don’t think that any other muslim can think about these kinds of attack…Or as these are in Hotel, so i can say that these can be from péoples belong to hindu religion.. This makes some Logic.. what do you think, if you have a mind!

WTF SRK. Condemn the attacks. Thats what we expect. But then you are a jaat ka Moslem.

Comment by Indian — December 3, 2008 @ 10:50 am

Well actors like shahrukh has always been so diplomatic! their sole motive is to earn accolades & compliments just to maintain their stardom!!
You are not a muslim shahrukh so better dont give a flying fuck about islam! You talk about work but your actions are solely based to earn applause & accolades that wins u a stardom & good money!
Secondly, whats dissappointing is the fact that my hindu brothers r blaming islam & muslims as a whole for whatever has happened in mumbai recently! We ask who? when?? how??? but why dont we ask WHY?!?!?!?!
comments like sharukh supports dawood & pakistani cricketers & all muslims are the same & that shahrukh will grow beard n will become a mulla some day!!!
So nicely said gentlemen & your anger is justified!! but why not just flashback into the atrocities that my hindu brothers did with muslims in gujrat or in mumbai(1993)??
exactly after the riots modi(culprit) was elected as the CM again which proves that an average gujrati supported the atorcities done on muslims who had nothing to do with whatever happened in godhra(it was later proved that godhra incident was not planned & it all started with the kar sevaks teasing muslim girls at the station!)! Muslim women were raped & video CDs has been made! families were burnt alive!!!
same thing happened in mumbai during riots & after that!! thousands of muslims!!!! The guys used to force civilians to drop their pants to see if the guy is circumcised so as to chop his head if hez a muslim!!!!! so strategically!!!
all this hue n cry that we see above by my fellow indians is the anger expressed for the genocide of approx 200 civilians which include muslims!!!! the bastards who has done this did not spare muslims n started firing indiscriminately!! yet my hindu & christian brothers think all muslims support pakistan!!
why is this biased n baseless view?!?!?! dont u butcher muslims in the name of religion??! why u pretend to be so liberal & tolerant which u r not!!!!!!
why this all double standards!!!!!!!!
any atrocity should be condemned & SHOULD BE JUSTIFIED WITH REASONS & THE CULPRITS SHOULD BE PUNSIHED!!!
But my dear country India always spares the rioters who butcher muslims not in hundreds but in thousands thus creating terrorists who are so filled with anguish n revenge that they support these fanatics who dare to come inside our contry n kill indiscriminately!!!!

DO JUSTICE WITH ALL & DONT CARRY SUCH DOUBLE STANDARDS!! EVERY CIVILIAN (HINDU, MUSLIM,CHRITIAN,JEWS) has suffered due to these terrorist attacks so just dont puke in ur filthy prejudices without reason n justification!!!

Why Don’t any Hindu actor comes up and condemn Hindu terrorism same way, There are hundreds of voices who support terrorist like Pragya and Purohit but there is no body who condemn their acts. Its simple double standard , Muslims must be perfect while every body else keep continue killing Muslims and enslaving them.

Well , what ever sharukh said ..it just a common message to all indians and but in deeper sense it dosent work for every thing..being a religious is not wrong but we need to be a true follower….i would say that ..all religion teaches very good deeds and protect us from evil practice…who ever trying to disturb the peace , please stop for a while and think smart ..dont just follow the leaders ….go thorugh the litreature and try to understand the religion..because of few illiterrate people religion and society get blame…terrrorism can not bring the peace the only thing can bring the peace is brotherwood.. you can change the world by your knowledge and kindness…..as far as i know about islam…islam is peace..islam never permits to kill innocent people…islam creates peace, brotherwood, love, a perfect society in which we protects our sisters, mothers and nieghbours..i have choosen to be a muslim not because of my parents are muslim…AM PROUD TO BE A MUSLIM AND PROUD TO BE AN INDIAN..MAY ALLAH BRINGS PEACE AND SHOWER HIS BLESSINGS ON ALL HUMANS.

He is a bloody traiter , he earn his bread and butter from Indian movie but sing in the praise of Pakistan and its people..

How come Shabahna Azmi and her dear husband Zaved Akhtar who want cultural ties with Pakistan are so quite. They may not want to condemn Pakistan government . However they are not even speaking out against terrorism. They especially Shabana is quick to raise her voice when Hindus suppposedly hit out at Muslims and she cries foul dthat there is decrimination agsint Muslims. Watching the number of Mjuslim IT specialists who came to mourn ATS slueth one would think that there is no discrimination at all.

Sharuk is a hard core Muslim. His devotion to Islam is palpable even in his movies. In numerous movies, he hides his Islamic feelings under the veil of silly acts. Don’t believe me? Watch his old movies again. He intentionally misses ringing bell in a Hindu temple (karan-arjun?), but makes it look like an accident. He pretends he doesn’t know to kneel before Jesus in the DDLJ. He and Nasir make fun of Hindu God in Chamatkar. He and his Muslim clone actors are always making fun of Hindu actors – be it big B, or Akki. The telltale stories have always been there. The ever appeasing Indians have to open their eyes…

Comment by GM — December 3, 2008 @ 11:27 am

Let me clarify thousands misconception about Islam, what world is seeing today is the Islam as understood and preached by Sahabas and Khalifas which ultimately lead to birth of tyrant Yazid who massacred Imam Hussain and his family in Karbala. The real Islam is what brought to us by Prophet Mohammed ( Salawat)and further carried by Ali and saved by the sacrifice of Hussain. The true Muslim will shed their own blood to win the cause and not by taking lives and shedding the blood of innocent people. The True muslims will never praise the act of terror and see Bin laden or Dawood as their hero.
The fanatic mullah of Pakistan are the today’s version of Khalifas who are misguiding the young blood to and stand up for jihad and raise them to carry out the act of terror which they call as Jihad. Who are these mullahs to declare the Jihad, do they themselves observe the Islam in its true sense. One should know that person who declares jihad or lead any act against any kind of oppression must me and an extraordinary person (must be masoom ) with divine knowledge and vision of justice, the one who even walk with care not killing any ants below his foot so the question of carrying out such and act of cowardliness is far out of imagination.
So we condemn any such act and this has nothing to do with Islam. This is same Hindustan which our Hussain desired to make his home if the Yazid allowed him to go.
So there is no need to say how much we love our country and no one can brain wash the true Muslims for any act against our land and our people.
To all the fanatic Muslims mullahs and so called followers of Islam (the misguided version) let me tell you that your acts are tarnishing the image and bringing disgrace to Islam. We in India are far happy and well protected even better than anywhere in the world and if at all we have some grievance we can resolve it ourselves not needing the help of so called mujahedeen’s. If there are some Hindus who give us pain then there are same Hindus who come to help us at such time so here in India there is existence of human values and humanity which is far above religion.

Why are you guys blaming POLICTICS for this?? We know politicians are corrupt & hopeless. But this act is BEYOND that. Its done by those religious FANATICS who are brain washed by those mullas in Pak who watch tamasha on TV after brain washing these kids in madrassas. These terrorists are DUMB. Why don’t they ask those mullas to go on suicide missions themselves or send their own kids.
Sorry to say but Muslims have the largest numbers of fanatics in the world. Its not an allegation but a FACT & even they know that. Few of these fanactics are making life of whole world’s muslims miserable. Ask peaceful muslims living in US & Uk and they would vouch for that.

Comment by Randeep Mangat — December 3, 2008 @ 11:42 am

Whatever Shahrukh said is his own view of things I don’t know he got any idea about the fact and happenings at the site and the situation surrounding it. No comments on that but he should not talk on behalf of muslims as he himself is not a muslim. Nobody should anybody a muslim or hindu by his name becos majority of the people living in this generation are so much involved in materialism they doesn’t have time to read and think about their families properly where in the hell they got time to read about religion and that too about other people’s religion.

Let’s take an example of stupid idiot by the name of Anil Mathew (a converted christian from SC,ST) becos his forefathers would have died of hunger and poverty if they have not converted to christianity because of our country’s biased nature toward weaker classes and caste and inequality meted out to them in the past based on caste and creed. AS I AM A MUSLM I FORGIVE THIS STUPID IDIOT BECOS ‘HE WHO KNOW NOT WHAT HE SAID IS IGNORANT AND SHOULD BE FORGIVEN’ This is written in what he called his book which teaches from start to end about LOVE & FORGIVENESS and this stupid is trying to spread hatred in name of religion.

These kind of stupid (Anil Mathew) who don’t know anything about their own religion like to comment on Islam and its teaching REALLY AND VERY TRULY IF ISLAM WAS TO BE SPREAD WITH THE USE OF FORCE THERE WOULD NOT BE A SINGLE NON-MUSLIM IN THIS WORLD AT THIS TIME…BUT ALAS….It was not to be as Islam was never spread with the use of force otherwise MUSLIM RULED AND CONTROLLED ALMOST WHOLE EUROPE FOR 400 years and still u find millons of christians and jews over there (SURPRISE RIGHT STUPID ANIL) yes these are facts MUSLIM RULED OVER MUCH OF AFRICA & ASIA FOR 100′S OF YEARS STILL I THINK (LAUGH) YES I THINK There are millions of Christians and jews specially in the wholly dominated countries like KENYA, CHAD, SUDAN, EGYPT, SYRIA, LEBANON, PALESTINE many names you will not even know If I go on writing RIGHT STUPID??? IF U DON’T AGREE CHECK THE FACTS.

KEEP YOURSELF LIMITED TO WORKING, DRINKING AND IF YOU HAVE SOME POWER LEFT TO FUCKING…AND IF U DARE TO SAY ANYTHING LIKE THIS COME IN FRONT OF ANY TRUE MUSLIM (NOT SHAHRUKH KHAN OR SALMAN KHAN) AND EXPRESS URSELF.

ISLAM WAS SPREAD ON MESSAGE OF PEACE LOVE AND EQUALITY AND WILL ALWAYS REMAIN ON THE SAME PRINCIPLE AS IT IS A RELIGION FOR WHOLE HUMANITY NOT ONLY FOR MUSLIMS.

And last but not the least regarding ISLAMIC TERRORIST IN GENERAL AND MUMBAI ATTACK IN PARTICULAR. Spare some time do some Investigation and get things right…there is nothing in this world called ISLAMIC TERRORIST this is a word coined by vested interest like your fathers in the western world A TERRORIST IS A TERRORIST WHO GOT NO RELIGION NO RELIGION TEACHES TERRORISM OTHERWISE I WILL GIVE FEW EXAMPLES ….IRA (IRISH REPUBLICAN ARMY=CATHOLICS OF IRELANDS KILLED THOUSAND OF INNOCENT CIVILIANS, KLF OR KHALISTAN LIBERATION FRONT AND 100′S OTHER GROUPS OF PUNJAB=SIKH KILLED AND MADE LAKH OF INNOCENT PEOPLE HOMELESS, ULFA,BLA, ETC ETC FROM ASSAM = HINDUS …OR WHATEVER KILLED THOUSANDS IN ALL THESE YEARS…LTTE =TAMIL HINDUS …..KILLED THOUSANDS I CAN GO ON AND ON ….and for mumbai attacks MY HEARTY CONDELENCES TO THOSE WHO SUFFERED AND THEIR FAMILIES BUT THEY SHOULD NEVER FORGET TO ASK A QUESTION TO THEMSELVES AND THEIR ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES ….WAS IT REALLY SOMEONE FROM OUTSIDE THE COUNTRY OR SOME SORT OF VERY DANGEROUS CONSPIRACY HATCHED FROM INSIDE THE COUNTRY BY SOME VERY NICE POLITICIANS WHO WANTED TO DIVERT THE ATTENTION FROM RELIGIOUS FANATICS CREATING TROUBLE IN THE COUNTRY IN NAME OF TERRORISM (MALEGAON, SAMJHAUTA, GODHRA, SURAT, ORISSA, KARNATAKA ETC)

FACTS : 3 TOP POLICE OFFICERS OF ATS INVESTIGATING THESE CASES AND GETTING NEAR TO PUTTING A STRANGEHOLD ON NECKS ON BIG FISH POLITICIAN WHO WERE AFRAID OF THEM GET KILLED BY BULLETS UNKNOWN IN THE FIRST FEW MINUTES OF OPERATION, AND AND AND THE OPERATION TO FLUSH OUT MILITANTS CONTINUED FOR 3 DAYS GREAT U SEE HOW GREAT…THINK LOGICAL AND FINDS THE ANSWERS

PLEASE I REQUEST ALL OF YOU WHO WRITE BLOGS OR COMMENT ON BLOGS WRITTEN BY OTHERS BE RESPONSIBLE OR WHAT U R SAYING BEING AN INDIAN CITIZEN U SHOULD ACT INDIAN FIRST AND LIKE GANDHIJI SAID ‘ AN EDUCATED INDIAN HAS MORE FUNDAMENTAL DUTIES THEN FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT, MORE RESPONSIBILITIES THAN DEMANDS ..ETC..” (written so much in one go things going out of mind )

Comment by lokesh — December 3, 2008 @ 11:44 am

I agree with Shahrukh Khan thoughts. But whatever is happening in country BJP RSS, VHP and Shive Sena is behind it, because their ideology create terrorism which we have seen in past like Godhra in Gujarat, Malegaon, Ajmer and other places. All these politician wants to spilit our country by religion which is impossible.

Since Babri Masjid demolised in 1992, terrorism increased at very large, one more reason is there always police catch the innocent Muslim people so this is also a big cause of increasing terrorist activities.

Dear Shahrukh,
Please stop being diplomatic at this point of time at least. Its India, not Pakistan. Hence you’ve got every right to be silent wherever you feel like. It’s not because, you are a muslim by relegion, you’ve been given importance, it is just because, you’ve been accepted by people of India through your work irrespective of your relegion.We would have hoped at least open strong condemnation of this brutal act.
If you are talking about, feelings that are mixed with anger, disbelief and sadness, then does Islam say in this case to open fire on mankind and destroy everything???
I really dont know much about Islam but all I know that no holy book teaches such act.
If these filthy and rotten muslim leaders would have been a bit sensible, instead of instigating such activites, they would have put pressure on govt for their development.
Unfortunately, this relegion is running towards destruction!!
All thye are concrened about raising thier population worldwide, without any idea, how to feed their children. Resultant is these children grow up as criminals.
Its not the fault of relegion, Its the fault of leaders of this community who preach Islam in a destructive manner in Madarsa.

I feel pity for these people and can understand the pain of their mothers who definitely would be thinking, why on earth did they gave birth to such child???
There are lot of things which other relegion people also dont like, They are not turning out to be a terrorrist!!! SO Mr. Khan Can you explain where is the problem??

This is the problem. Accept that religions and religious books do teach violence . But in modern times liberals shud abhor it. If u say religion doesn’t teach, terrorists/extremists will always say there r things written abt violence in all religious books , more so in some special books. Don’t try to justify the religion. Say that fundamentalism brews from the religious books.

SRK is just being diplomatic in his comments. But when I observe the comments, I see a lot of rage already between different religions.

People should not blame on religion, period.

Terrorism is a religion “on its own”. We the people of India should fight that “Religion of Terrorism”. There are good and bad people in every community.

I don’t think any1 is better than any1 else in this world

Every1 has been affected by this horrendous act of terror
Including myself as I have lost family & friends
Both non-muslims & muslims, all I know is that
The blood that has been shed is red & human.

No religion promotes terror, people misinterpret religion
& have done so throughout history

Are all hindus evil because a few massacred christians in Orissa?
Are all muslims evil because a few decided to blow up themselves?
Are all christians evil because of the crusades?
Are all jews evil because of the cruelty israeli government is famous for?

Basically all faiths are different as much as we all are as people
We need to respect each others views & beliefs
Only then there will be peace on earth

Every religion preaches that we must set a good example
Violence is not something that is approved
But you are allowed to protect yourself & your faith

So yah, self defence is fine par that does not necessarily mean
Physical fighting, intellectual, verbal discussions can also
lead to solutions so why not give that a chance rather than violence?

Before you judge any1 else, take a moment to look @ yourself
Are you really better than the other person?
Is another human worthy of hatred just because they have different beliefs?
Can we not accept our differences & just celebrate the best aspects of each faith?

Please take a moment to think before you speak/type/express

All muslims are not terrorists but (almost) all terrorists are muslim! The so called “religion of peace” has become synonym with “religion of terrror” and the muslims still seem to be in the state of denial. It is futile for muslims to blame others and try to drag other groups/communities into the terror fold (A also did that, B also did so, etc) while the facts show that the most violent , gross and henious terror acts in the world are all committed in the name of this religion (make a survey - US, Chechnia, Sudan, now Nigeria, even inside Pakistan, Iraq…) A little self-retrospection will do. Accept it or not, muslims around the world are most hated right now! rather than blaming others, muslims get your act right and prove not in words but in action that islam is indeed religion of peace.

This Khan is not worth the words he is mincing. What has he done to educate the mis-guided Muslim youths? He is earning in India and building his empire in Dubai. He has no morale right to teach. He is first a Muslim and then may (or may not be) an Indian. For us the country comes first and then the religion. Muslims are first pro-religion , even if they have to be anti-national for that. SRK,Javed,Shabana… all are hypocrates. They should give their teachings to Muslims.

Comment by Vikas — December 3, 2008 @ 1:14 pm

SRK is a Muslim who looks to the true teachings of Islam. No religion teaches hatred or abuse. All religions teach peace, love for humanity and their surroundings, may that be the physical such as family and friends or the metaphysical. All religons will have obscure scripts that when twisted can be used to influence the ignorant. By hardwork SRK is encouraging us to think of our actions prior to following blindly. I think even in the Koran it states to kill an unarmed man is a sin worthy of the greatest punishment. How do the great Mullahs respond to this.

I recently watched a Pakistani movie on our local cable that starred Nasrudin Shah - Quada Kil yae - in the final 30 mins he refutes the hardliners and provides a logical arguement towards moderate Islam.

Living in a western world I am open to many different cultures, having several Pakistani friends is a joy, the majority of persons from Pakistan are not war mongers.

The war in the world today is not Hindu VS Muslim or Jew vs Muslim, but instead it is a war within Islam and until the moderates do not take a stand against the fundamentalists, I fear Islam is in deep trouble.

Allah has given the precious life. If a Muslim kills any innocent people then he cannot enter into paradise. Any true muslim doesn’t want to loose the paradise.

If anything happens around the world then everyone blames “Islamic Terrorists” and “Muslims”. Islam never preaches terrorism. As per stats, Islam is the fastest spreading religion in the world and every other religion leaders are scared about its growing. So, these types of conflicts they create. Don’t ever relate Islam and Muslim; because if you really watch Muslims then they don’t follow true Islam. Why should Shah Rukh Khan give lecture about Islamic values; because he never preaches physically, but don’t know from his heart. Islam is for everyone.
Now, we are leaving in communication world with core hard facts. Just because you are born in Hindu or Muslim or Christian or Jews family doesn’t mean you need to adopt the same religion. You need to ask yourself first, what do you mean by religion. Religion means it should solve all of your problems and should provide all solutions to your problems. Non-Muslims just take out of the context Quran words and then spreads hate towards Islam; because they fear spreading of Islam.
Come to Shah Rukh Khan or Movie business issue. These Film personalities should take some responsibilities to these happenings; because what they are showing in their movies; exactly the new generations are doing in real scenarios. Whatever they are showing in their movies, we are experiencing in the real life.

Comment by Mohammed Ali — December 3, 2008 @ 1:26 pm

why ppls all the time point fingers at Islam,I don’t get.Those who are posting against Islam,I’ll be happy enough if I get ans of the following questions:

1.India: In Gujrat at 2002,in a single day by the support of his excellency Mr Narendra Modi and under direct supervision of RSS,VHP 2500 peoples were raped,slaughtered,axed down,looted in a single day.Pregnant mothers womb was torn apart and the fetus was chopped.Even today you can check out the existing videos in TEHELKA where some X Y Z bhais are saying,”muslims shouldn’t even breed”.
Isn’t it terrorism?ha?If you say yes,then my reply to you ppls ,bro ans sis Mr Narendra Modi still today is the CM of Gujarat.Is it the reward or punishment?

2.In Orissa,India christians were raped,killed indiscriminately.Where were your voice then?Is it Hinduism,which is responsible for this killing?Man I don’t point finger at Hinduism cause its clear like broad day light that this was done to satisfy the vulgar political ambition.Nothing to do with religion.

3.In Bangladesh,majority of ppls are muslim.But can you ppls recall those horrific yrs of 2004 and 2005 when bombs blasted in Court,Road sides,in school,in cultural programmes.The bombers even tried to kill the exprime minister Sheikh Hasina,who is now almost deaf.Who were the sufferers in this bomb blast,you ppls know?99% were muslim.I know the killers were muslim but thats not the issue today.Its proven that the politicians are the culprits who created these terrorists like Bangla Bhai or Abdur Rahman or Sani in the brand of Islam.All of them are executed.But even after execution or thorough vigilence over them,can you stop them? whom you think are the culprits?

4.In Iraq,in the name of restoring democracy,hundreds of thousands of civilians including ladies,babys were killed under the order of G W Bush.
GW Bush has given order to spray cluster bombs over Afganistan which killed ppls like mosquitos,made lame thousands of ppls.Whats there fault?What wrong they’ve done with GW Bush?Where was humanity when GW Bush did these acts?
Where was your voice?
Do you ppls dare to call GW Bush a terrorist?

5.see folks in Mayanmar,Suchi is behind the bars for last 18 yrs for nothing.There is dictatorship even in this 21st century in Myanmar.What have USA done to the martial regime?Where is there humanity?

I can raise hundreds of issues like those above.But the bottomline is these inhuman acts has nothing to do with religion.Folks pls don’t take decisions on emotion.Justify it.

and about Mumbai mayhem,as a human being I condemn with the whole heart this blood shed.I sympathise for those who are killed in CST,in Taj,in Nariman House,there families and I strongly urge Indian Govt to sort out who the culprits are behind these heinous crimes.I want justice in all those killing not only in Mumbai,but in Delhi,in Assam,in Hyderabad,in Gujarat if you have the gutts to do so though I doubt.

Thank you all for reading.

Mr. Shahrukh,

Where does the “Concept of work” comes in to picture here? People those who are training Terrorists are very poor or the terrorists him self? It is a state policy adopted by the Pakistan, not an economic issue?

You have not clearly condemned the blasts and terrorist actions, for the fear of loosing “box office” collections.

Every one must accept the following fact: “WHEREVER THERE IS ISLAM, THERE IS TERRORISM”. We can not name any country where there is Islam and no terrorism or Coercion.

Comment by REDDY — December 3, 2008 @ 1:33 pm

It is all true but u indians should think about Gujrat tragedy, when u murdered over 8000 Indian Muslims, why u were not highlighting this, it was much bigger terrorism, what u have faced now, Now i ask all indians, whether he is hindu, christian or having any other religion,you guys smartely escape, when you have done anything wrong and one more thing, stop accusing any country especially Pakistan without any shit prove

Comment by True Pakistani — December 3, 2008 @ 1:34 pm

Mr. SRK
This is not a proper time for these type of publicity stunts.
There were Muslims as well who have died in this attack.
Were the politicians and Religion Heads not enough to spread this religion differences.that you have started to do so.
And what do you understand of yourself just go and dance and sing and stop coping Amitabh because he was also criticized of his word regarding the attack.
Its true that you love being in news any how but avoid such cheap publicity stunts.
Learn something from Amir,Salman,Akshay,Ajay etc

shah rukh always have nothing to say becoz he dont want speak against muslim terrorist…he is not an indian..if he was then he would have definately felt something abt the innncoent people who get killed in the attack …instead of talking abt the attack he is giving lecture abt islam…how islam is great and how young muslims should respect it…we dont want to hear ur lecture abt islam …u better should not comment anything abt the terror attack becoz all we hear is a big lecture abt islam…u better keep ur bloody mouth shut….

Comment by pradnya — December 3, 2008 @ 1:39 pm

Shahrukh, ur nothing but a fundamentalist deep down, never have u actually slammed terrorists in your statements, im sure u must be praying to ur allah for the peace of the terrorists souls, i want to ask u a few questions, take it as my open letter to you, respond if u can…
1. When have any muslims openly condemned any attacks by islamic extremists?
2. Why werent any muslim organisations protesting outside Pak embassy now that the facts of the mumbai terror attacks openly blame Pak… When America attacked Afghanistan/Iraq, the muslims of India were leading marches to the American and Israeli embassies, although India had nothing to do with America, Afghanistan or Iraq.
3. Why werent any of ur so-called Muslim brothers protesting outside the Indonesian embassy right after the Bali bombings, just becos the attackers were Islamic??
4. Your IPL side was full of Paki players, didnt u see any other talented players from elsewhere in the world, u could have picked up 2 pakis and 2 other international players…
5. Rumour has it, and im quite sure its true, that during the India Pakistan final in T20 world cup in South Africa, u came specially to see that match hoping a Pak win would take place, if u claim to come there cos India was the finalist, then where were you in 2003 world cup final, same country, same stadium, same India but with another finalist(Australia).
If you can answer these questions, then pls do so, remember it was becos of India that u enjoying all this wealth, success and fame, personally to me ur a pakistani deep down…and a fundamentalist to the core, India needs to send you and Dilip Kumar’s ass packing to pakistan where you both belong….I really wish Shiv Sena, RSS and all other Hindu organisations get together and root out Islam from the face of Mother India…Jai Hind, Jai Maharashtra.

As an Australian I lived in British India before the war and what is happening now in India is because of your Hindu forefathers who discriminated against the Muslims in every sphere. The Hindus, especially the upper castes potrayed the Muslims as dirty and beef eaters. Because i=of this hatred it was then seen as the only solution was to give the Muslims a seperate state and so Pakistan was born. Who can deny that this discrimination and hate still exists. My adopted son who lives in Bombay could not purchase a flat because he was a Muslim. I want the old Indians who lived during that time not to deny this truth. My love for your country and countrymen will never diminish.

Mr Rawal your such an idiot and dumb and also blind coz you can see only some Masjid being demolished while thousands of people are dieing everyday because of terrorists belonging to pak or wotever bullshit country they are from, one thing is clear, they are muslims no one can deny this.

And as far as BJP is concerned, you will not like them because they dont provide reservations to muslims. It was not politicians who started it, it was terrorists who are muslims and people who support them.

Haha, this is so funny. Mr. Khan, who always plays pro-muslim and pro-pakistani roles, and speaks so polictically, trying his best not to offend his Pakistani Brethren. When will our audiences realize that these guys who are earning in and milking India, will never be true Indian citizens. If, God forbid, but something were to happen to India, these ppl would not think for a second before moving their baggage to Pakistan or elsewhere. I am tired of listening to their crap. Wake up Indians, and and stop drooling over these fakers.

Finally, Mr Mohammad Mumbai blasts are not the only act of terrorism in India, these activities are happening from years in all major cities, can you guess who did it? Not Hindus or Indians for sure. Have you ever till this day seen or heard an Indian killing innocents in Pakistan or Afgan? You know who live there.

Unfortunately everybody forgets the fact that after marriage, he converted his wife to Islam and now he talks about work is worship (sic). Who doesnt know how he has established himself in Bollywood? Being chamcha of D gang has reaped rich benefits for his career and he cannot openly state anything against Islam, Pakistan or terror being caused by his stupid religion. Let him deny the fact that, his religious books propogate that Non Muslims should converted by bribing, force and if they refuse, kill them. See the mess his religion has caused world over. Fate of India and the world would change only when this religion is thrown in Arabian sea for cruel Arabs to follow.

someone said in these comments ’send him to pakistan’ thats exactly what shud be done..ban all his films..specially the new one ‘My name is khan’ we at least now need to understand and INDIANS… that when it comes to country these muslims will say we are indians..but when it comes to religion they will not back indians..they will only back the muslims… in short they can never be ours they will never say anything against muslims or act against them..their religion is the only thing for them… welll talking about this man…send him to PAK thats the bottom line..

Comment by Mumbaikar — December 3, 2008 @ 2:15 pm

The problem with Muslims and that includes SRK is they never want to disgrace their own Muslims due to their so called “brotherhood of Islam” theory.

Its a Dog’s SHIT theory which is the cause of the spread in Islamic militancy.

If only every REAL Muslim who practices ISLAM wakes up and lashes out at the BLACK sheep (Muslim terrosits) and disown them and call for a decree to denounce such
militants who kill for their own agenda and NOT for Allah.

No ALLAH or GOD ask for the BLOOD of Humans or animals.
ALLAH or GOD is LOVE.

IF ALLAH WANTS TERRORISM( killing of innocents) THEN HE DOES
NOT DESERVE TO BE ALLAH !!!

These terrosits should be condemned by the Highest mullahs to be the darkest evil
SATAN - who is out to destroy the religion of Islam - then only can this evil be uprooted.

Comment by DR J. Walia — December 3, 2008 @ 2:25 pm

Here is another one of those actors who’s a muslim and refuses to say that Pakistan need to hand over the terrorists and Indian should akill all paki terrorists.
Not a single muslim actor will ever speak against traitors within and outside India. We’ve seen this from the time of Dalip Kumar, Shabana Azmi ( who is readily available to light candles if a muslim is a “victim”)
These actors have only one religion make their money from Hindustanis and praise the pakistanis

Comment by yakub — December 3, 2008 @ 2:25 pm

SRK - don’t talk like a politician. One of your big comment was ” its such a huge waste”. You didn’t even comment on the bravery of our security forces who were wiliing to give away their lives. You did’t talk about how it difficult it must be for the families of innocent deceased person. You should be fortunate that you or any of your family members were not affected by the mumbai terror attacks. Otherwise you would have poured all the emotions and anger at the terrorists. Its time you stop going only after money, fame and wealth. Remember its these people of india who have also contributed to your stardom. If you are true islam believer, its time you give it back to the society even if its in small doses …

Comment by Amit — December 3, 2008 @ 2:38 pm

Shahrukh is not a Patriotic, Otherwise he would have gone to Malegaon,Bhiwandi, Kashmir etc to ask Muslims to follow the peace instead of fighting for religion. Jihad will definitely end up, if these Muslim leaders, actors show some courage to bind them together under our Tricolour not just gren colour…and help out in our national integration. This will definitely accelerate to fight against Terrorism. Muslim youths are supporting Jihadis for mere gifts in terms of money and other helps, but they should know it will not last forever. Politician are tottaly waste and they are unchangable, thanks to us only we are responsible for that. Our one vote definitely change the fate of the country. It is time to take responsibility instead of pin pointing each other. Lets take oath to build this country again and make it stronger and integrated. Jai Hind!!

Comment by Yashwant — December 3, 2008 @ 2:46 pm

Sometimes I feel even educated people speak like uneducated. This was nothing but a fight for supremacy. Such fights have been going on for ages and will continue in all ages. The form of fight may differ.

A person who practices a religion, in his heart, will always want to have entire world practice his religion.

When you consider Hinduism its a way of life. If one practices it like religion he too will want the entire world to be Hindu but a true Hindu will not want his breatherens in other countries to practice the culture over there for he knows the reason for following a way of life.

Muslims and Christianity are practiced as religion. They don’t understand that Christmas time is a great time in Europe but we don’t have the same climatic conditions. So India has festivals according to its climatic condictions.

Intellectuals from Indian subcontinent shy away from facts. Trust me till people don’t adopt common way of life within this region there would be conflict based on religion.

Lets be ready to face this reality.

Comment by NK — December 3, 2008 @ 2:51 pm

I was in 6th Grade when my english teacher Mr. Benerjee (age - approx 70 that time) called me upto hi desk and asked me, What is the meaning of ISLAM and MUSLIM. I could not answer because I didn;t knew it. He told me the answer
ISLAM - “Sollah (16) ana Sacha” that mean “100% true” and
MUSLIM - “Strong Beleif” . If we are MUSLIM and follow ISLAM then we should be true in our deed and should have strong faith on ALLAH and Mohammed(SA) the messenger of ALLAH , who says that even thinking bad for some human is SIN, killing someone is far more SIN.

ISLAM started as religion of LOVE, FAITH and war against Hatredness and brutality.

We should understand ISLAM before we say we are MUSLIM and follow ISLAM and faith on ALLAH and Mohammed(SA) the messenger of ALLAH.
ALLAH and Mohammed(SA) the messenger of ALLAH please forgive me if I am wrong and help all to understand ALLAH and Mohammed(SA) the messenger of ALLAH.

More over it is worldly knowledge that Dawood would not like him speaking bad about Terror at the same time as it is expected to say something - He just has to say “something Neutral”!!

Comment by Factastic — December 3, 2008 @ 2:55 pm

Why Sharooq has to speak about it, cos he is Muslim ? I dont understand why media expects people like him to express openly about what they think about so and so situation. They are no better than RR Patil, Deshmukh, ManMoh Singh. Why dont you ask Intelligence agencies of what they are doing to prevent further attacts and what kind of setup they have. Islam is hijacked by extremists. Pakistan being our neighbour makes it worse. Pak muslims should take a leaf out of Indian muslims in going for education and other activities and stop consulting 1300 yr old book to see what they can do to washing their hands, whether to marry their sister or not or whats the best way to kill people and justify it in the name of Jihad etc. Thats totally F**ked up concept. Muslim brothers wake up and update your books and thinking. Otherwise your end is near. Mullahs and Moulvis you listen to are all 5th graders or educational failures who could never get to 7th standard. Dont be influenced by their thinking and hatred speeches. They dont have enough brain ammunition to understand any religious texts, what would they teach you ? Asking them about what is good and bad is asking like ” What is Pain”. Whatever their answer is, you will only realise pain when it hits you and you personally experience it. So please ” WAKE UP”. Allah is not the only GOD they tell you, think about it. If ALLAH was the only GOD, there wouldnt be so many religions and cultures. Everybody would be breathing a different colored air. Take this example - Your name is Yousuf ( GOD ) your brother calls you bhaiyya, your friends call you Abe Sale, your mother calls you beta, your father calls you gadha. What i mean to say is you are called by different names by different people in your own family. That doesnt make you a ” Different person”. You are same. Apply this to GOD and see if something hits you. There is a saying ” Everything ends up in circle. Send out hatred, it will come back and hit you, send out love it will come back and hit you. It is so simple still so difficult to understand. Think about it. God has gifted us all with some brain cells which expect us to think and act responsibly.

God Bless All

You are right SRK and we all respect you all the relegion. No relegion gives negative teachings.
But nobody can run from the fact the in today’s world there’s only Islamic Terrorism who have created havoc and in near future it may also become the reason for the end of the World. I dnt know what they call Jehad is if they kill people especially from India they will they will go to heaven. In such sitituation th Muslim leaders and celebrities should honestly come forward to show the right path to young Muslims and lead them in our development.
Remember every people staying in India is a Hindustani.

I don’t think that Indians are Hindu or Muslim first. They are Indians first. This kind of hatred is nurtured in places like our neighboring country and places like Afghanistan and Taliban. We need to tighten our belts and improve our security and anti terror preparation. Even the world is slowly beginning to realize that root of all hatred mongering is in Pakistan and focus is going to shift onto it to improve. Hate will not win the battle(nuclear battles can’t be won). Diplomacy, pressure and improved measures of security will do the trick.

I understand what SRK is saying. He is talking about ideals and what it should be. Well we all agree to the fact that how the youngsters need to spend their time. All ideal, all good. Now back to reality, Mr. SRK - the things are not ideal and probably never going to be as there will be some bad element in the society. The issue is how to deal with them. Long term planning is not required at this point. India does not have time to change all the youngsters who have gone wrong way.. especially if they are no in India!

I expected more realistic message from SRK who is loved by many.

Comment by Indian — December 3, 2008 @ 3:38 pm

this has been stated many times and i would just like to emphasise that no religion incites hatred or any act of terrorism. The underlying principle of Islam is that of peace and of spreading peace. whoever has conducted these heinous crimes are a minority and we should not allow such a minotiry to tar the image of Muslims worldwide. a majority of Muslims like followers of any other religion are law abiding citizens. we should not allow such acts to cause friction between us because if it does; the terrorists would have succeeded in their objective.

Comment by Razir — December 3, 2008 @ 3:40 pm

I don’t know what Shahrukh Khan and all mean to say. But, if any one apply his mind can easily dig the fact that without political support and internal conspiracy or Politicians and currupt police this could not have been happened. and on count can one make sure that all killed were hindus only not muslims(see the list of deceased). I stongly condemn what had happened in mumbai. Prophet Mohammad(s.w.a) had said about the killing of any innocent person,”If any one kills a innocent man(irresperctive of cast and religion) it is equivalent to killing of entire humanity”. So can be thought how it propogates brotherhood and humanity.
Person who says Islam was propogated with the help of sword. they are mistaken since, any educated person can calculate, if it were spreaded with the help of sword then the muslim ruled for 900 years and the entire community would have been either converted into Islam or would have been killed since ‘Jaan to sabko pyari hai na’.
an Emperor Aurangzeb ke baare me jo fabricated things is fed into new generation then every body should understand there would not be remains of any pracheen Temples or any other religious place other then Masjid. Since he had ruled India for more than 50 years.
Some of the insane people says bad words to Mahatma Gandhi, cant one think at last what did he get, he suffered for our freedom and sacrificed every thing to serve us all…………
Its my appeal to every sane person to have a mind on the things themself rather then getting swayed away with biased and mutilated history………

We need to put the past behind us and rid ourselves of this cynicism. Otherwise were just indeirectly propagating the terrorists cause.

that the government had no hand
as in is not to blame for negligence?

in the case of our mumbai
it is the same
yah we have been attacked
par the government should also take responsibility
for the failure

I just find it really fishy
that it took so long for them to react
its like they knew this was gonna happen
or didn’t care that it did, de ja vu any1?

War is not the answer for everything
& for all who are hating SRK
many people he knows were @ the taj
infact he regularly dines there
so please don’t ridicule him jst because your angry

I think every1 tends to put each other into
so many different categories we forget
that we are human..uff

It has been analyzed so far, the terrorists involved in the Mumbai attacks were Muslims.
First of all, it was said that they came from Kerala and latter Dakhhan Mujahedin was alleged and suddenly the terrorist country Pakistan popped up. Of course, nobody can deny that the terrorist organizations from Pakistan and they can do such coward acts. Those devils have worn tilaks and saffron bands on their wrists. The ATS officer, Hemant who was inquiring the Hindu terrorist’s organization has been killed among the few. These devils have been operative for centuries. They are also killers of Bapu (Mahatma Gandhi) and many more and now when they are unveiled, they can go to any extreme. They have killed so many Muslims and now start killing Christians in orissa and some thing very dangerous on their agendas..

I agree with SRK….he is right in pointing out that once religion should be ‘work’…

In fact if you will see around the current world especially in metros, people have formed their own community which includes member from every religion. This new community is nothing but the profession that they belong to….u will find people from software industry, finance; banks etc are more closure to person which share same profession…instead to hindu, Muslim or Sikh.

India must learn to realize that groups will continue to hit them,it’s an existential hazard India has to put up with.It sure can minimize the damage with its increased vigilance but there will be no shortage of groups wanting to pay back in the same breath.
India which styles itself in being a regional superpower has attempted in every rational and sinister way to exert its influence across the region.This has invariably led to countless instances of people and regions being humiliated and taken advantage of.A case in point being tamils in sri lanka who were witness to atrocious acts of human debasement by the indian army.what did India get in return?rajiv gandhi paid for it with his life.Kashmir holds a similar picture and needless to say humans will always fight back no matter how weak they are if they are cornered.India lorded over one of the biggest instances of ethnic cleansing during the 1990s when its bhutanese lackeys expelled almost half its nepalese citizenry and still India chose to look the other way.
well my point is if you are want to play your politics only in the way it suits you without regard for human dignity and pride,someone will hit you one day to settle the score.Tough luck India,you have got to learn to live with it.
and attacking Pakistan?haha..take a walk pals.India is so preoccupied with trying to impress America it will do anything to please its master.America will make sure that does not happen and in turn convince Pakistan to beef up its defence even further for ‘future threats’ and sell millions in arms to them.Indians,cry hoarse,that’s all you can do.RIP!

I agree with Shah Rukh.

Work should be our religion.
In fact, WORK should be world’s religion, since we are all connected, wired and
interactive through internet.

Comment by Ankur Srivastava — December 3, 2008 @ 4:43 pm

Dear Shah Rukh, I’m an Indian Muslim who was born and brought up in Saudi and went to Arabic schools and had to study 6 Islamic religious subjects even though I took Science in my 12 standard. When I joined Wadia College (Pune) I realized that because my religious fundamentals were strong and my parents always taught me Islam correctly and beauty of my nation (which was thousands of mile away from my birthplace) that I was more open minded Indian than many of my college mates. I believe terror could be solved through preaching the right picture of religion. No religion teachs to kill innocents. But every terrorist takes religion as a refuge since most of us do not know our own religions.

Comment by Yousuf Siddiqi — December 3, 2008 @ 4:49 pm

SRK has a soft-corner for a terrorist nation called Pakistan. He has openly expressed this many times.

Comment by Pranayjyoti Sinha — December 3, 2008 @ 5:02 pm

The statement and sentiments made by SRK is reflective of the predicament that modern muslims face in a secular, pluralistic, tolerant and democratic society whether it be India, US, Europe or wherever. Modern muslims would like to see, interpret and portray Islam within this modern context as they know that is the only rational and reasonable option. And none of us have any reason to doubt their sincerity. Indeed they fervently hope it is true! But the reality is that Islam has NOT modernized and is resisting modernizing to accommodate a more pluralistic and tolerant world. The problem is that modern muslims need to drag Islam out of the dark ages and into the 21st Century. There are similar problems (but just to a lesser extent) with other religions such as Christianity, Judaism & Hinduism but so far they have not resorted to violence or at least large scale violence. Underlying this violence bigotry and hatred is the concept in most if not all religions that they are the one and only true path to God. That concept needs to be removed from all religions that espouse such stupidity. Modern thought and society has no place for such narrow-mindedness.

Comment by Apurva Sheth — December 3, 2008 @ 5:09 pm

I like how SRK put it. Though, it is wrong of him to even mention Muslim or Islam. Is he protecting Muslim? Why? We all know that Terrorists are not Muslims, Hindu, or from any other religion. They are just SICK MINDED WEIRDOs.

This is a social problem. When religion teaches discipline, why would anybody go beyond what religon teaches?

This is also Indian National Security concern. Do you think resignation of Patil or Deshmukh will solve intense terrorism?

Comment by Hitesh — December 3, 2008 @ 5:21 pm

sharukh’s silence is not he is against terorrisem, it looks like he support such act, and he exposed it many times, its the foolish dont understand him, like amir and sabana, he also raise voice against many thing politically and any nationalist action, if you see the history these people never raised any zanda against islamic terorisms

Comment by bob — December 3, 2008 @ 5:21 pm

i think SRK is a best performer INDIA has. He is truly the BEST. He setting a good example for everyone. He is right we are all human and we shoudnt use religion and fight. We should all live together. I just hope that we can come through this stronger and send a strong message to terrorists that people of India and pakistan want to live as one. No one should be able to split us because of religion.

SRK is too pathetic, manipulative self serving and narrow minded individual to speak patriotically for the people of this country who have made him what he is today. He emphasizes being a Muslim more than being an Indian, he cannot see the faults of his own religion and lives in denial.

Comment by PLEA OF INDIAN MUSLIMS — December 3, 2008 @ 5:56 pm

Shahrukh, as do all actors, earns his money by playing imaginary, fictitious and fantasy-full roles which do not have anything to do with the reality of life. How can he speak of “Work” ? Some days ago he spoke about himself as one “who never gets tired”!
The majority of Indians sweat it out in life. Their hands and feet get torn out and cut off as a result of resolute, hard and sincerework and sub-standard working conditions, all just for a meager pay-scale. Shahrukh understands cuts only as a “reel-experience” and not “real-expereince”. He should stop talking about Work because he gets paid for any “silly joke”. The “poor” indian worker, however, does not! In Work-ethics, it is not easy earned wages, which stands out, but hard-earned renumeration. Shahrukh’s world is different. If he is sincere he should cooperate so that the youth would have job-opportunities. He should invest not in IPLs but in such noble causes. He too has had a rags to riches experience… isn’t it?

Comment by norman dsouza — December 3, 2008 @ 6:04 pm

I read some comments on here questioning why SRK did not more strongly denounce the terrorist attacks or speak about the sacrifice of the brave policemen and soldiers. Instead SRK has used the word “waste” and I for one belive that he has expressed what needs to be articulated (anger, saddness, disappointment, darkness and hoplessness that has engulfed individuals, families, cities, our beloved India and indeed the whole world) in a very succinct and appropriate way. His use of the word waste has struck at a deeper and wrentching emotion that is hard to express by words alone. Previous descripions have been used so often and with so little change that they have become meaningless. We need a different vocabulary and I congratulate SRK for showing the way. Clearly SRK is deeply sensitive, astonishingly inteligent and enromously chraismatic. I know it’s wishful thinking but I truly believe SRK has the capacity to be our OBAMA!!! He would have my vote!

Comment by Apurva Sheth — December 3, 2008 @ 6:06 pm

Hello all, Im not here to support khan or go against what he said. a person is free to express his or her opinion and they are entitled to their beliefs and feelings. but look at everyone who has commented here. we should be sending out a message to those radical extremist terrorist groups that yes u did manage to attack us, but you also united us. united our country, united our minds and thoughts. we are stronger than a few people trying to change the world through terrorism and innocent killings. We should be here stating that yes, we did get affected indirectly or directly by what has happened and we as true indians will stand by each other will act on this in solitude. We are the youth of india and what has happened cannot be changed but what hasn;t yet happened can be prevented for the glory of our country.

Long Live India

Islam is the fastest growing religion for the last 1400 years so lets drop the idea of it preaching terrorism and the fact that there is no current example of a place being forced to covert to Islam (under the sword) and still the fastest growing religion even now should assure that no sword converted Subcontinent people to Muslims either.

Now it is important to understand its not Islam but Politics under the banner of Islam , I dont think the terrorist in the pic looks like a practicing Muslim or does it ? neither have Indian authorities claimed hes defending Islam .

Blaming it on Islam is a habbit of the Dog loving nation as you know. Do you have to copy ?

Comment by QMBi — December 3, 2008 @ 6:27 pm

How can you expect Hinduism to be a modern religion when the basis of the religion is workshiping the Penis ( Shiva Ling) . Talking about stupidity . what would be more stupid to worship elephants , boar pigs and mice.

Islam is a perfect religion…………I cannot say the same about muslims .

As for SRK . He should shove his opinions into Karan Johar’s arse alongwith his dick

Comment by AK — December 3, 2008 @ 6:58 pm

I believe that any religion in the world never ever taught cruel, injustice, atrocities or any kind of unnatural behaviour, but the people, who so called leaders of religion (s) are teaching it. Art form of our culture is beyond any religion. The basic thing in any Indian life should be change is “be a patriotic”, don’t ever say it is not my problem or I am not gaining from it, so why. Any tragedy strike India whether natural or unnatural (man made), we should skip asking question “why” but try and help to get over it and proceed for strengthening the future. Instead, if, if we start making politics out of it, then there is no end for it. I request it should start with you.

Comment by GHALIB ALTAF — December 3, 2008 @ 7:12 pm

SRK is simply avoiding the issues.

There IS a problem with being a muslim and letting others live peacefully, since it is the basic tenet of Islam that people should either convert to Islam or die. Mohammed is quoted, “preach with the book in one hand, sword in the other. If they do not listen to the argument of the book, then they shall receive the argument of the sword.” It is a basic tenet of Islam that Mohammad is the last prophet, whereas in the Gita it is said “sambhavami yuge, yuge”, that prophets descend repeatedly. It is no use saying “Islam doesn’t preach intolerance”, or that it does not approve of violence against non-Muslims. It does.

So, it is NOT merely a case of making one’s religion “private” but one of PUBLICLY REJECTING a religion that does not accept and tolerate other prophets and holy books, which are if anything more ancient and traditional than Islam. Hinduism is a religion that accepts explicitly that all authorized religions are different paths to progress toward the same God. The word “secularism” has no meaning without this understanding. How can Muslims be a part of a secular nation unless they realize the FUNDAMENTALISM and INTOLERANCE that is INHERENT in Islam, and REJECT it?

Of course, there are terrorist attacks that are being carried out on the basis other than religion (e.g., Lankan Tamils), or by fundamentalist groups (in Christianity as well as modern-day Hinduism) but at least Hinduism as a religion does not at all reject the existence of other religions, i.e. other religious books and prophets even today. Islam does. This is why the ’solution’ SRK offers, of keeping Islam a “private” affair by young Muslims will not work. Muslims have their job cut out. Either they should MODIFY Islam so that is openly tolerant and accepting of other religious paths and prophets; or they should REJECT Islam. This is what SRK and any right-minded Muslim must call for.

Comment by Radha Krishnan — December 3, 2008 @ 7:17 pm

I do not undertand all this anger on SRK, he is not a politician, he is not responsible for terrorism, people who are questioning his loyalty, should know that his father was a freedom fighter. He gave a statement he truly believes in, for him work is religion. Some of the comments in general have so much hatred in them. When 911 happened in America, the people of US united against terrorism and helped the people that were struck with the tragedy. There was no blame game, but fight against terrorism. Fight terrorism, do not fight within your country.

Comment by Jazmine — December 3, 2008 @ 7:20 pm

Yes. Shah rukh is a nice fellow. I just want to ask shah ruk’s opinion on how does Dawood operates from slum corner in the world and how does the producers gets so much of money to fund the big budget films.

Comment by SupportDawood — December 3, 2008 @ 7:25 pm

Why everyone is upset with SRK. It does not matter, if SRK gets or does not get involved with preachings etc. Be proud that he is married that he married to Hindu and lives happily with the family. Don’t compare SRK to Amir or Amir to Salman or Salman to SRK. Do you guys know how Salman behaves with his girlfriends?

SRK is minding his business. It is a sensitive issue for him being Muslim. Every one can talk but let everyone put themselves into someone’s shoes. May be into SRK shoes or Amitabh Shoes.

He is a Muslim (the whole world knows). So why he is at a fault. Don’t you know Hindus, Jews, Christians and whatever other religions are there in the world makes mistakes, rapes women, kills people.

Damn, people always problems if someone talk or does not talk.

So, all you guys who hate SRK/Salman/Amir/Amitabh/etc - just shut up. Do your jobs and take care of your families. Also, ask yourself if you did something to any one or to the country.

Amitabh the God Father of the country, Is he doing anything to the country. He has friends running the country? The answer is NO, because being a great hero in India, does not mean anything.

Jai Hind.

Not a word about his favorite country Pakistan ?? Shah Rukh was first to make sarcastic comments about America, when some visas were rejected because of security. He made these comments in Media, Shows and Award ceremonies he hosted.

People following him know that he is known to make sarcastic comments on everyone and mention that it was a light hearted joke. But NEVER EVER made a comment against a Pakistani.

Comment by Truth — December 3, 2008 @ 7:43 pm

And what would be the tenets of this new religion work? Will it be able to give peace of mind and spiritual solace to people? What about the innate nature of man where he knows that there is a Creator? It is almost like a communist ideology which denies God and wants people to work. But have they achieved anything significant?

There is no need to take our religion from society. What we need to know is firstly search for the truth and the true religion. And the true religion is one of justice and peace. I believe Islam is the true way of life but I’m not an extremist who will go to kill non-Muslims unjustly. I’m not going to rob non-Muslims or do any kind of injustice to any non-Muslim. If I live in India or USA or China or any non-Muslim country obviously I’m going to follow local laws. If there is any law which prevents me from practising my religion properly, I won’t go to that country or I’ll try to change those laws through peaceful means and with patience. The life of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is ideal for us and we should learn from his biography. We should learn how he effected change in that barbaric society and how within a few decades after accepting Islam, the Arabs became the leaders of the world. Truly the rapid spread of Islam in the past and even in the present is a testimony to the beauty of this way of life.

These extremists, terrorists and other Islam-haters won’t be able to distort the beauty of Islam.

First of all, this is a individual (SRK) opinion, so, please don’t over react it.
According to Islamic faith whoever works in the film industry is haram. whoever kills innocent people is haram and unforgiveable act. No Muslims supported these terrorists and terrorist acts except very few, take the example most of the Imam in Mumbai have refused to pray funeral prayer for these terrorists. Imams have said that they cannot be Muslims who killed innocent people.
LIke Shiv Sena, Bajrang Dal, VHP, Etc. are killing innocent people in Orrisa, Malegaon, UP, etc. and Kashmiri’s are suffering because of the Pakistani terrorists.
Please don’t react it and don’t waste our precious energy.

Comment by charming_man — December 3, 2008 @ 8:35 pm

No religion ask to kill ? Good Joke folks.

Quran tells muslims to slay the infidels(non-muslims) wherever they find them(9:5), fight against non-muslims until they are subdued and pay jizya tax (9:29).

Prophet Mohammed have killed many people in the name of Allah and waged war against non-muslims. Look at his last 13 years of his history, Islamic history is full of war and violence.

Let’s face the fact. These terrorists are true muslims. They are following the footsteps of Quran and Prophet Mohammed.

The sooner we accept this fact, we will get to find solution for Islamic terrorism.

This is a comment in response to Mr. Anil Mathew’s comment that SRK should stop preaching and Islam spread by sword.

I will not enter into an argument with Mr. Anil on his views - but, I have just this to say -

What you’ve written shows hatred in your heart. What Mr. SRK says is take out all religions from all walks of life - and that ‘Work’ should be the new religion.

He also points out on what a collosal waste of resources, talent, ingenuity, etc. it is - when such things happen.

I am a Muslim, Mr. Anil. I work for an international firm of repute - but, NEVER EVER have I judged anyone based on their religion or background. I have a lot of christian friends; they’re all very close to me and I have extended myself to them, as they have toward me in good times and bad.

What appeals to me is talent, hard work, honesty, sincerity and level-headedness.

Please think constructively - as a common, civic citizen of a great country, with a rich heritage and background - in this age and time, it is the only way to live positively.

My appeal - do not get into this ‘hatred’ stuff - it is like poison for your heart.

Sincerely,

if work should be the only religion according to sharukh then tell him first to come out of his muslim religion and also teach how to act and work to his kids and not islam. Common he is saying like politicans who only speak and speak and dam speak a lot but never do what they say. Be practical and macho on your word.
If he really mean that the young generation muslims should be taught the real meaning of islam then he himself should do first or with his lot of money which he has earned in bollywood , he should open a anti-terrorism and anti jihaad muslims institute and pay to 10 teachers atleast to give lesson of real islaam to all young muslims.
if you really are worried srk then do it ,just dont say , there are many ways and you have your source .

We should create one land above Pakistan somewhere and dump all these Indian muslims there then India will get peace otherwise there will be terrorism in India till it has been destroyed.

To all those uneducated assholes who commented against shahrukh… you talk about muslims knowing nothing other than hatred…just read your own comments. Shahrukh did not voluntarily call the media to make this statement.. he was asked to comment on it. secondly if he doesnt condemn pakistan or the terrorists or praise the army it doesnt mean he doesnt feel so.He is not obligated to comment on everything that is the duty and should be expected from the politicians. Log kuch bole toh problem na bole toh problem. If you are a young generation educated INDIAN then i d expect ud have atleast so much of common sense to understand that… but i guess youre just young and stupid like the terrorits. Some misguided expectations you have.
If you have balls of steel then do something yourself instead of bieng a fucking hypocrite and abusing others. Its so easy to comment on a blog… get ur asses out and cause a revolution to solve this crisis of terrorism. I bet most of you nincompoops dint even attend the mumbai ralley . What have you done to give a solution to terrorism.. Abusing, commenting on religion is not the answer. We talk about hindus and muslims living in harmony but read ur comments.. not ALL terrorists are muslims…they have been misguided by groups like the al qaida and LeT. And the biggest hypocrites are indians of all castes like you… who agreed when india pakistan ties were getting better and there was hope of reconciliation and now u blame every pakistani?? HYPOCRITES!! This is the kind of reaction terrorists want and sadly by making such hateful comments towards shahrukh and other muslim celebs you are proving them right. Shahrukh is an ordinary citizen like u and me and like every indian has a right to express his opinion.. if u cant understand his noble intentions behind it then thats ur problem.. you need to get ur head checked.

You claim politicians divide and rule basis religion but you are just going along with them.. Unless everyone doesnt get smart and accept that religion is not the cause of terrorism we will never rid this country of it.

So to all the people who commented here of negative comments Get alife… grow up… itni choti soch humaare desh ko tabah kardegi. and leave shahrukh out of this.. he is a peace loving indian and there is nothing wrong is being tolerant towards other religion that doesnt make him any less muslim and also that doesnt mean that he supports dawood or pakistanis or terrorism… make such claims when you have sound proof else just shut the fuck up.

Comment by Navjot Singh — December 4, 2008 @ 12:46 am

Every muslim has emotions towards islamic ideology. It is time to take side now, not to hold congress hostage about sick-u-liarism. Mr. Khan has choosen to invest in Dubai over India and as much as that is his choice, it demonstrates his personality. He is not a mentor for me and not is any khan for that reason.
Nice thoughts though, if muslims of India would have not walked in to SIMI, IM, DM and other hate camps organized and funded internationally by each and every mosque around the world. I see no dove from those lecturers who proclaim: Islam is religion of peace. End J&K occupation and integrate it with India before holding hindus hostage. Take up the ownership of deed of babur, Ghori, and Lodi/Taghlut. Mr, Khan, people like you should challenge these Indian anti-national muslim force, starting from J&K. Good luck..

Now please dont waste your time writing about Shahrukh or bollywood. Write about the weak indian administration and its corrupt politicians.

And please dont dont blame a religion because of a few crazy people.
we do not term all christians as terrorists just because hitler was a christian. Do not generalize these things.

Comment by AJ — December 4, 2008 @ 1:29 am

I completely agree with SRK that work should be our only religion.
How many times are we gonna play the blame game on religions.I believe truly the schools should teach children only to be one no matter what.
let us stop judging people based on their religion.let us all thrive to be true indians and lets have jus one religion INDIAN.
JAI HIND.

Dear Shahrukh

Your comments are bit misleading and confusing to most of real Indian
Muslims. We are not criticising such attacks, we claps when sachin gets
out etc makes Indian Non Muslims angry on us.
Now do not became big Haji or Kaji in one line criticise the terror act and
Say that terrorist is sponsored from Pakistan.
I know you won’t say because you fear boycott of your films in other
Muslim countries.

Hatrete towards Pakistan and Terrorist and faith in India and in Indian politics
Is a real colour of an TRUE INDIAN. You can not expect from a person who
is hesitant to spend Rs 100 on movie about non partial attitude.

“I am anti Pakistani and anti terrorism.”
Repeat my words. I know you can’t

Dear country men,

I am commenting time to time on sensitive issues,
giving solutions to the situations
once I wrote a letter to SRK
he is yet to reply
he wanted to thanks his parents
I told he can still convey /talk to the departed souls
similarly
we can talk to the departed souls in the recent attack
then decide what s their views and act accordingly
let the young genration come to power
i respect all comments by all my beloved country men

What Mumbai and India is going through is a very dark time. No words are enough to condem the horrifc act of terror and no words are enough to console those who have lost thier loved ones.

It is during these testing times one gets to see a transparent face of good and bad indivisuals.

SRK is a icon of Young India, he is a true Indian before he is a muslim, a person who worships Geeata and Kuran at the same place, whose wife is hindu and his children resite the gayatree mantra. You doubt his integrity. Shame on us. How many of us are like him one in a million????

What he has said is absolutely true make WORK the official religion of India, we will
win every battle be it terror or ecnomics. It is a very sad thing that we are pointing fingers on Good People and people who divide our country on religion or so called GODS for many of us.

He commented on the younger generation of Muslims and him highliting the younger
generation is justified because these young elements were the core of this tragedy.
One should understand why and from where he is coming, before slaming at his comments

Wake Up Guys, it is time change our thought or mental state.

Our battle is with terror and the creators of it. They do not belong to any religon they
are just a pain in the ASS and I am sure we and the entire world is getting ready to hit
them in their balls.

Comment by INDIAN — December 4, 2008 @ 2:18 am

Send SRK to Pak. Send Salman to Pak. Send Amir khan to pak. Amir wants to send 1000 flowers in response. Who is he kidding. Why doesnt even one of them come out openly against Pakistan or terrorism. Sympathizing with those who lost their lives is not sufficient. We need every public figure muslim who has not demonstrated unflinched commitment to India and criticism of Pakistan and underworld.

Alex Harvey,

The terrorists are using two major things for their recruit….Palatenian issue and Kashmir issue. Until the world community find an amicable solutions for all parties involved, it is very hard to get rid of these terrorists. The so called world leaders failed in finding a solution for these two lingering problems for the last six decades. Hope they wake up now and find a solution for these two problems, so that the world will be a better place for the future generation.

Comment by Abdulrahman — December 4, 2008 @ 2:42 am

What boggles my mind is how it is so easy for someone to twist the religion especially Quran which is misrepresented among young and tender minds? Politics is not bad but playing a bad one hurts society.

It is easy for anyone to state to take religion out but let us face it if we went back in time, ever since humans took foot on the earth, religion and power has been the elements of struggle and survival. Agreed marching towards future, education can shape the young but many of these often helpless and brain washed terrorists are educated! What about religious schools?

What is expected from role models or icons along with political leaders is more than a statement and that is leadership, whatever medium one chooses. Where does the road to fight against terrorism end? Is there any end to global terrorism? Many such questions I do not see anyone able to provide a clear long term solution to this problem.

I really support Shahrukh’s thoughts .”.WORK IS WORSHIP” In the present times when the economy is growing..education should be the real weapon to fight againt the odds of hunger,poverty,discrimination,unequality..which are all the outcomes of illetracy…An educated mind in a true sence would never inculcate such feelingsof hatred between countrymen…this time requires the feeling of equality and brotherhood between we Indians to build a better nation free of terrorism!!We all hav to fight against terrorism which is a cult to humanity!!youngster must be taught the real meaning of religion…be it hindu,muslim or christian..no religion teaches killing of innocent people..if anyone preaches killing as a religion he is an inhuman and anti religion in true sense…terrorists are misleading youngsters ,brainwashing the innocent minds and preparing them for the terrorist activities in the name of islam.The time has come when the educated class should inculcate the feeling of patrioism in the youngesters so that they come forward as true Indians and not hindu,muslim or christians!Dividing the citizens in terms of religion is not a solution…all the terrorists must be severely punished …and all Indians must give their support to this cause..Its time when all of us should come forward as true patrioits “INDIANS “which we are before being a hindu,muslim or christian and fight against terrorism…JAI HIND

Comment by shweta — December 4, 2008 @ 3:40 am

The problem is not justifying like some have commented here - comments like - ‘SRK doesn’t know Islam’. We need to rectify the problem - like SRK said ‘ know your own religion’. I am not a die-hard fan of his, but I always felt films and celebrities sale in our country, and their words can do wonders!

When Salman Khan celebrated Ganesh utsav, Muslim religious leaders declared fatwa against him, I am a Hindu and I celebrate Eid, Christmas, Guruparv… etc.

Islam is not bad, but right now, some people are acting culprit under the facade of Islam - and globally Islam sparks a terrorism. Why?

Comment by Indian — December 4, 2008 @ 3:46 am

disagree on one point with SRK…meaning of religion shouldnt refer just to work, but adding onto it i beleive:

religion = work + humanity

we must forget the very essence of humanity…it is what can ultimately quell the violence.

Comment by dimitry — December 4, 2008 @ 3:48 am

Here SRK is the guy, who goes to Dubai and othe M.E countries, just to make money and dance in front of all pakistanis settled in middle east. As he cannt go to pakistan to perform, so he goes to dubai and other middle east places. As he is also muslim ofcourse d-company command him to go to DXB and entertain their fellow, who cannot go to india.

great work you traitor.

Comment by Ram — December 4, 2008 @ 3:55 am

There never exist a military power without a strong economic background. Pakistan is suffering from grave economic disaster. Army generals and ismailist are afraid that if we do not hamper india economic growth then it would be difficult to substain the war with India. This might hamper thier so called exitensce.

It is important that in such scenario let us be responsible that we all stand together as Indians .UNITED WE STAND AND DIVIDED WE FALL. SRK is very respectable social figure.Think twice before you speak. Remember we have gain a lot due to Muslim brothers. Your hatred should be borne for our enmeies - extremist pepole of Pakistan.

In meantime we should not leave behind this terriost. Reply has to be given back in most approporaite way. EITh KA JAWAB EITH SE AUR PATHAR KA JAWAB PATHAR SE. If required we should contribute for reply in some way or other.

There are some terriost who are listed in most wanted list of country for long time(Dawood Ibrahim).They need to be pnished. We need to destory each and every way they earn money in India. Destory thier empire. Teach them a lesson.Punish people who are supporting irrespective of religion. Remember it hindu politician who stll are protecting them.

In mean time look for places where extremist misguide youngster. destory these places. Poverty is main reason behind very crime. Ensure upliftment of exploited people to reduce occurence. There are many thing to be done .Think how to be done and what each one of us could do. DO NOT BLAME ANYONE.LET US ACT together.

Mohammed:

1) you are true believer of conspiracy theories!! thats what you people continue to believe till you die. How can you call youself an Indian if all you do is find fault with our country. its amazing that you still believe that those terrorists are from India and are non-Islamic. How can you call You are a diff ’species’ altogether. Don’t ever call yourself an indian.

2) So you are saying that: if muslims wanted to convert everyone ‘by force’ then there will be no other religions left in the world. and why are you people still 20% in India? (everyone knows that even this figure was not reached becasue of conversions, but becasue of ‘lack of family planning’ among your uneducated masses. Why don;t you try and convert say 100 jews from Israel to Muslim. Even if your 100 generations try, they would not eb able to do so.

3) Do you disagree that if US wants within a few hours it can eliminate all Muslims nations form the globe? 5 nuclear weapons for each Islamic nation, 50 nations max(majority muslim nations), 250 weapons is what they need, and it takes less than an hour for them to eliminate all the nations from the map, they got bases where those weapons can be launched and guess what no Islamic nation has got a base close to launch a strike on US from outside.

The Afghan war if they wanted to kill taliban and Osama by use of nuclear weapons would have been done in 10 minutes, but that would have also killed millions of innocent people. US will Never ever do that. Imagine if you people had that power, what would have happened??!!!!

Comment by fatima — December 4, 2008 @ 4:47 am

People of India are you just blind? This guy should not be a role model to you if the first words that come out of his mouth is Muslim. He relates to his religion more than he relates to the country that gave him his life. We the Hindus are so stupid we dont realize that our religion is getting pushed aside by the Islamic foundation. Dont believe me? Look at the movies that come out of Mumbai - I see more Khans than any Hindu heroes. I see more Arabic/Urdu in the title than Hindi or any other religion. I am in US and I know how this works. India is being changed to a Muslim nation. Stand up now. Watch movies that only have Hindu heroes. That is not a terrible thing to do…THINK ! Damn it, people THINK real hard before you start agreeing with your Islamic heroes.

Comment by andre — December 4, 2008 @ 4:56 am

SRK is right!!!!!! But celebraties had always been imitate by people of all religion. It is moral responsiblity of muslim celebraties that they should guide to other muslims about religion and intigrity but they don’t do.
If they do like this it will definately work.

Comment by Niwrati Patil — December 4, 2008 @ 4:58 am

all those who have appreciated srk’s thought and who have pointed him. Simple question as an Indian what we have done for our mother land. It is easy to point fingers at others. Terrorism has no religion but off late many young Muslims have taken this route. It is request to all love your motherland and don’t cause harm to any others motherland. Frankly speaking I am worried about my work, family and everyone does that. But each one has responsibility towards the motherland.

Comment by Raza — December 4, 2008 @ 5:07 am

Wow! Your all comments seems so emotional that it feels like you used gut instead of brain. SRK is just a common man like you who happened to be in entertainment industry. He is just as vulnerable as we all are to most situations we face daily. He works just as hard as we all do. If he was quiet about terrorist act, then so be it. Why do you all try to imply and put words in his mouth.

And by the way, if any Hindu who knows that there are 33 crore gods (as residing in mother Cow), then name them all. If you cannot, then accept my proposal - Allah is one of those 33 crore names. And you will see followers are Allah or Jesus will appear to be one of you.

Only Love and Peace shall proliferate you - Gautam Buddha (9th incarnation of Jai Shri Maha Vishnu). And if we fail to follow, which will happen, the Kalki (10th incarnation) will do its job - Armageddon.

Love and Peace.

Sharukh, Why not “Country First” ? Why there is not same laws for everyone. It is a sad truth that terrorists are practicing Moslim religion. You can not say that lack of education play part, as some of 9/11’s terrorist were educated person. It is time for everyone to wake up and get united against terrorisom. Why all Muslim countries are quite? It is shame on you too that you stayed quite too

Comment by BRB — December 4, 2008 @ 6:10 am

What ever SRK has to say about religion and some of the posts are totally absurd. By SRK’s definition, we should all be communist. This is absurd.

It is impossible to take religion out of one’s beleive-set, unless one is as rich and famous as SRK. I think the problem is not with the religion but with how one defines and practices it. The way most of the mormans and many of the muslim practice religion is absolutely a threat to free World. These issues shall be taken care of very delicately on all fronts.

SRK- I am a big fan but you did not impress me with your absurd comment.

i have never seen a true muslims in my life, as a youngster , i feel proud as an hindu,
a religion which had given us solace, spirituality, everything that other religion dont have. thats why muslims are afraid, we never force ourselves on others, while muslims force there religion on others, history knows.

I LIKE TO TELL MY FRIENDS DONT DO APPEASEMENTS, BE REALISTIC IN LIFE
LOVE THOSE WHO ARE LOVEABLE , ENEMY IS ENEMY, ATTACK IS THE FIRST LINE OF DEFENCE.

It is quite saddening the fact that the people of this great nation are looking up to enterntainers with no qualification to talk on matters of national policy, in difficult times like these. What happens if Shah Rukh does not speak? In fact, it is a measure of his dignity and humility if he has agreed to stay out of this discourse on political matters, unlike many other celebs who have gone over the top with their schadenfreude. Let politicians do what they do best - press them, indeed force them - to do their best. For a person from a small town in India, the way things are going, it all looks like a bug circus to me - lots of mudslinging, agony and unfounded fury. Mumbai is known for its brashness - but the way they have gone about dealing with this tragedy is more reminiscent of a scene from ‘Die Hard’, than anything close to the famed ’spirit of Bombay’. It is as if Mumbai is not talking to the rest of India, it is talking to the West.

Many thanks

Comment by AB — December 4, 2008 @ 10:24 pm

Islam highly condemns terror activities and clearly prohibits killing of all creatures.

Killing of innocent creatures is highly prohibited and condemnable in all religions including Islam. Every right thinking person of any religion knows it very well.

Muslims are too victims of such despicable crimes against humanity. If some misguided criminals are killing the innocent people it is NOT the mistake of Islam.

Every religion has idiots and criminals elements in it, whose limited knowledge is always provokes insulting and violence. Some pin head persons remarked that Islam has spread by sword, which is totally wrong. I’m pretty sure, he does not know anything about his own religion leave alone Islam.

Human history is full of wars including religious wars. Everything has two sides, good and bad, likewise history had such people. Islam too had to confront bad people, like security agencies have to do now.

Ramayana is about fights in Hindu History, Crusadors spread their message with swords. Hilter was a Christian, Ravana was a Hindu, you cannot imply all Christians and Hindus too are violent.

It all depends from which angle you want to view the history from, surely if future generations history books written by terrorists, they will find SECURITY AGENCIES as tyrants. So, take out your foggy head from Gutters and read history, terrorists are criminals and has NO religion at all.

Islam never spread by sword, it is always a message of Peace and love, extremists like you have hijacked it and now, Hindus, Muslims and others suffering because of their criminal acts.

Terrorism is a disease like cancer affecting everyone, let’s join hands to find a cure instead of pointing fingers.

Long live Indian Unity.

Comment by ASHWIN — December 5, 2008 @ 7:18 am

Why is it that we all think we have to hear the opinion of every actor, every musician, every famous person with regards to what kind of tragedy has happened? I’m a big SRK fan but, honestly, while I completely agree with what he has said, my feelings on what happened in Mumbai do not need my to be quantified by what a famous person has said. I’m more concerned about what action will be taken by politicians (or inaction) and the government, and other governments of the world. While these famous people ARE people and feel just like the rest of us, we should stop seeking any kind of “wisdom” they give us as the end all, be all of what should be said and done just because they are famous. If SRK had said nothing, it wouldn’t have mattered to me.

I’m also tired of reading these haters taking the actions of fanatics for the tone of an entire religion/people. ALL the major religion in this world…Christian, Jewish, Muslim and Hindu…have been responsible in some way or another in many fanatical actions. So those of you spewing hatred against Muslims need to shut up and take a long look at your own religion before you start throwing stones and slippers at others.

Comment by sreejana — December 5, 2008 @ 6:59 pm

I am shocked to see everyone attacking SRK, here the issue is not about him. We need to learn to stop blaming others and take on some responsibility as an individual be it Hindu/muslim or any religion. We need to unite and show our support to each other and be vocal about what government needs to do. We need the government to take a drastic action against terrorism. We want to know what the government is planning in the future to fight against the terrorism. This is not about SRK, show your frustration somewhere else. I bet he is as helpless as each of us even with all that power and the title ‘KING KHAN’

Comment by sandy — December 6, 2008 @ 10:50 am

Because SRK is a role model for lot of Indians as well as Pakistanis, the message he conveys gets through. Moreover, his intention of teaching the real meaning of Islam is not to put down hinduism or support those terrorist, but to educate to all illiterate and ignorant people that what Islam really means and NOT it has been projected through terrorist acts. Those who can’t get this, are merely distrusting those sensible indians to are thinking right. Cheers.

Those who can’t get this, are merely distrusting those sensible indians who are thinking right. Cheers.

I totally agree with all what’s been said above, there should be no such barrier of religion and the caste system should be banned.I come from a “rainbow” country(Mauritius) where at least 7 totally different cultures live in harmony,including Christians,Hindus,Blacks,Whites,Muslim and Chinese.And we respect others’ religions and we have absolutely no caste system.Living and studying in India for the last 3 years makes my Indo-Mauritian roots come alive and I feel this is my 2nd home,but I do not want to leave this place with the only thought of fleeing from terror….I totally agree with SRK….It is the proper education and proper leadership of this country that can lead to better days. May God bless this country and may it seek peace with its neighbours and prosper in harmony.

MR SHAHRUKH KHAN HAS HIS OWN REASONS TO BE QUIET IN THIS MATTER.HE DEPENDS ON THE FINANCE FROM THE PAKISTANI UNDERWORLD.AND HE IS TALKING ABOUT HIS RELIGION AS A PEACEFUL ONE.WELL ITS TOO LATE FOR HIM TO ADVERTISE HIS RELIGION AS THE BEST ONE.SINCE HE IS NOT A KAFER,HIS LANGUAGE IS DIFFERENT.WE ALL KNOW WHAT ISLAM IS.ALL INDIAN MUSLIMS ARE MUSLIMS TODAY BECAUSE THEIR ANCESTORS WHO WERE NOT BRAVE ENOUGH WERE CONVERTED TO ISLAM BY PUTTING SWORD ON THEIR HEAD.ALL TERRORISTS ARE MUSLIMS AND THESE MUSLIMS SHOULD STOP TERRORISM OR ELSE VERY SOON ISLAM WOULD BE KNOWN AS A RELIGION OF TERRORISM.IS ISLAM PROPAGATING TERROR.

Please don’t fight between you guys for SRk’s sake. Anyone knows why he was silent??? As everyone knows, SRK did not attend any peace rally and shamelessly kept silent for several days. He would have attended the peace rally if there is an award or he is able to buy an award. SRK will never understand the heartbeat of Mumbai and the pain and agony faced by those innocent people who lost their dear ones. By these kinds of debates and arguments, we are giving so much importance to him. Honestly, I think we are insulting those martyrs who laid down their lives by bringing SRK into such a serious issue.As an Indian, frankly I think there is a person by the name SRK lives in India. Please stop talking about him. Thanks

He hasn’t commented positively because of his connections to dubai and the underworld out there. his comment about 9/11 and how why it happened, proves that he believes mumbai incident was because of what india may have done to muslims. If the muslims don’t like the separate laws for them in india, liberty they have in india. then he and his muslim bros and sis should pack up and go to pakistan. He forgot that it was the bollywood of mumbai which made him prosperous and famous, else he would be in the same league as the street hawkers of india. shame on you and all of you who call him king khan, he is a guttery khan.

SHAHRUKH IS THE BEST AND THOSE WHO ARE EITHER UNEDUCATED OR TERRORISTS WILL TALK THIS KIND OF RUBBISH AND ABUSIVE LANGUAGE……I ASK GOD TO FORGIVE THEM FOR THEY LIKE OTHER JEHADIS KNOW NOT WHAT THEY ARE SAYING OR DOING..I ASK SRK TO PARDON THEIR SINS FOR THEY ARE NOT SRK AND DON’T KNOW HOW TO HANDLE THAT KNOWLEDGE THAT THEY CAN NEVER BECOME HIM…….I FEEL SAD THAT THEIR LIVES ARE A WASTE AND VERY SAD FOR THEIR PARENTS THAT THEY HAVE THESE UNEDUCATED WASTRELS HANGING AROUND IN THEIR LIVES AND I FEEL ASHAMED TO NOTE THAT THERE IS THIS SITE WHERE YOU ARE ALLOWED TO ABUSE AND GET AWAY WITH IT…………ON AS SPECIAL A PERSON AS EVEN SRK………

It was really nice to see that SRK came forward and talked about this issue………….

Comment by Shaan — December 9, 2008 @ 1:38 pm

well terrorism is a religion in itself and now this is the need of time that all of us, must unite to fight against it……..

Comment by Shaan — December 9, 2008 @ 1:47 pm

we must pray for all who died in there hotels, keep peace between our communities even, because in india living most of the communities, we’ll care about all and teach them self with peace, because we can’t afford even 1 day war, if war between us we must lose more innocent peoples in both sites.
