Launching a scathing attack on Shah Rukh Khan, Uttar Pradesh BJP leader and former Sardhana MLA Sangeet Singh Som called the Bollywood superstar a “traitor (traitor)” for picking Bangladeshi fast bowler Mustafizur Rahman for his Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) team in the upcoming edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). He even went a step further and claimed that Shahrukh has no right to live in India.

For those unaware, the KKR franchise is owned by Shah Rukh, actor Juhi Chawla and her husband Jai Mehta. Sangeet Som said during a public event in Meerut, “On one hand, Hindus are being killed in Bangladesh and on the other hand, cricketers are being bought in the IPL auction. Shahrukh Khan bought Rahman by spending Rs 9 crore.

Today in Bangladesh, anti-India slogans are raised, the Prime Minister is abused, but traitors like Shahrukh Khan are helping him by spending Rs 9 crore. He has no right to live in this country. ” Threatening Mustafizur of dire consequences if he comes to India to play in the IPL, Sangeet said that he will not even be allowed to leave the airport.
