Saif Mocks HUMSHAKALS Again
| ||||
Saturday, 9th August, 2014, 02:15 PM IST Reports regarding the Union Government examining a demand for taking back the Padma Shri award conferred on Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan have taken a new turn. The actor has himself spoken on the matter.
On being asked to comment upon the subject, Saif jokingly told a popular daily, “Are they rethinking my Padma Shri because I did ‘Humshakals’? This will be an examination, not a re-examination since it's a different government.”
The actor further added, “I agree that a punch up is not what we expect from a Padma Shri, but to take the honour away without proving the fact is a bit extreme. Let the court decide who is to blame first.” An RTI activist, SC Agrawal, had demanded that the actor be stripped of the honour after a Mumbai court framed charges against him for assaulting an NRI businessman and his father-in-law at a city restaurant. |
