Ramdev asks SRK to return his award money

Ramgarh (Jharkhand), Nov. 5 : The hate storm against Shah Rukh Khan continues to escalate as Yoga Guru Baba Ramdev on Wednesday asked the former to return the money earned after receiving the prestigious Padma Shri award to the Prime Minister’s relief fund.”If he (Shah Rukh Khan) is a true patriot, he should return all the money he earned after winning the Padma Shri to the Prime Ministers’ relief fund, in case he plans to return the award.”Baba Ramdev’s remark comes hours after Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Kailash Vijayvargiya had on Tuesday attacked Shah Rukh Khan over his “extreme intolerance” comment, saying his ‘soul’ is in Pakistan though he lives in India and also painted him as an ‘anti-nationalist’.However, the Senior BJP leader retracted his tweets on Shah Rukh Khan, saying he was ‘misconstrued by some’. “My tweet was misconstrued by some. I didn’t mean to hurt anyone. I retract my yesterday’s tweets,” Vijayvargiya had said in a tweet on Wednesday. BJP MP Yogi Adityanath compared Shah Rukh Khan to 26/11 Mumbai terror attack mastermind Hafiz Saeed and said the actor was speaking in the same language of terror.
