Shahrukh Khan banned from IPL

Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan remains very tense of late. Though he is very good at handling his various responsibilities well, the stress has finally taken its toll on him. King Khan was spotted smoking on the stands on April 21, while watching his IPL team perform. But this stress busting act has not gone unnoticed as the anti-smoking squad has seen him smoking in the field which happens to be a public place.

The National Organization for Tobacco Eradication has sent the details to Supersport, who are the official broadcasters of the IPL and the NCAS. NCAS has said that television footage showing icons smoking dangerously increases the chances of children and other non-smokers picking up the habit as they try to emulate their heroes.

NCAS further said, “While smoking in public places is still not banned in South Africa, the department of health there was very active in lobbying for the concept of no smoking in public places. If Khan does it again we will ask the management to caution him, or we will seek his removal from the stadium."

Watch Out SRK, You Better not smoke in Public Places!!!

Shahrukh Khan unhappy with Sunil Gavaskar

Kolkata Knight Rider owner - Shah Rukh Khan lashed out at former India batsman Sunil Gavaskar for his harsh comments on John Buchanan’s multiple captain theory. John Buchanan, the current manager of Kolkata Knight Riders, had suggested the multiple captain theory for the IPL second season that has risen quiet a few eyebrow.

India`s batting legend Gavaskar, had criticised Buchanan`s theory saying too much importance is being accorded to the Australian, who is a failed first-class cricketer and is only trying to get lucrative jobs for "his Queensland pals".

"I have great respect for Mr Gavaskar. But having said that I would like to say that please give the multiple-captain theory a breathing space to try now. If we fail we can always go back to the traditional way. I have spent lot of money on my team. If you have a problem then you buy your own team and run it the way you want." Shah Rukh said as an obvious response to Gavaskar`s comments.

Sourav Ganguly, who led the team last year, had expressed resentment to the multiple captain idea.The former India captain and Buchanan have had lengthy discussions with Shah Rukh at his residence to thrash out the issues.
