New Delhi : Sangh Parivar unleashes full-fledged hate campaign against superstar Shah Rukh Khan, coining fake allegation that the actor ;spat’ at the dead body of singing legend Lata Mangeshkar, at the state-sponsored funeral held Sunday evening at Mumbai’s Shivaji Park.
At the funeral, Shah Rukh Khan offered prayers with cupped hands and at the end of it, as is the Muslim custom of ‘Dua’, he blew into the wind, momentarily lowering his mask. The custom is well-documented and widely known and the image was first tagged in a tweet as “Secular India”. However, shortly after the post sailed on social media, the BJP IT Cell head Arun Yadav came up with a gross interpretation of the dua, describing it as ‘spitting at Lata Mangeskar’s body’. Hindutva extremists were quick to gulp the distortion and took to social media denouncing the star with their ‘spitting’ tale.
