"He did an outrageous act during the funeral" .. Details of Shah Rukh Khan's crisis after the spread of pictures of his supplication for "The Nightingale of India"
While SRK was wearing a white shirt with his hands folded in respect and praying for the soul of India's great artist Lata Mangeshkar, nicknamed "The Nightingale of India", and pictures of his attendance at the funeral and his prayers spread, fierce attacks quickly appeared on the media.
Campaigners on social media have claimed that Shah Rukh Khan has committed a heinous act, accusing him of spitting on Lata Mangeshkar's body.
Immediately the Twitter accounts in India were filled with hate against SRK in particular and Muslims in general with propaganda channels joining the campaign and attacking Muslims saying that they do not respect our symbols.
A BJP leader from a northern state also joined the campaign.
SRK's prayer was supposed to be something out of the ordinary from a world-renowned Muslim artist to a Hindu singer. SRK participated in some of his hugely popular works thanks to his acting performance and La Mangeshkar's voice, but the images of attending the funeral were misused by extremists towards other religions to mislead people and target Muslims. .
The Indian press is now circulating about Shah Rukh Khan's new crisis after the crisis of his son Aryan Khan, who is accused by the authorities of possessing drugs for the purpose of drug dealing and trafficking.
It seems that there is a systematic campaign in the Indian media against the artistic Khan family. Not long ago, an Indian channel recently published a story announcing that Aamir Khan married for the third time. When this turned out to be unfounded, the story was simply deleted, and the channel did not offer any apology.
In recent years, hate advocates have forced the highly successful Khan family into silence as their films are routinely attacked with calls for a boycott.
Any Indian artist who sympathizes with them, or speaks out against the climate of hatred, is threatened, as happened with the artist, Deepika Padukone.
The campaign is currently evolving from Shah Rukh Khan's attack on Muslims in general to coincide with the veil crisis in India, where veiled women are prevented from entering schools and universities in some regions of India, which sparked an internal crisis that necessitated the closure of Al-Eidi from educational institutions due to the tense situation.
