Shah Rukh Khan has established himself as one of the legendary actors in Indian cinema. He is known by most as King Khan and is celebrated across the globe. However, a recent statement by Assam's Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma left fans of the superstar furious. At an event, the CM claimed that he doesn't know who's Shah Rukh.
Amid protests against Pathaan in Assam, Sarma said, "I don’t know anything about him or his film Pathaan. I don’t know who is Shah Rukh. If there is any protest that has created a law and order situation in the state, we will see for it. But I am not going to watch Pathaan. I will watch the Assamese film Dr. Bezbarua -Part 2 which will be also released and the people of Assam should see it."

He further added, "Shah Rukh Khan has not called me for has asked me to watch Pathan. Why will I watch it? I will watch an Assamese movie."
For the unversed, Bajrang Dal staged violent protests against Pathaan in the state. Activists burnt posters of the film at a theatre and also vandalised the theatre in front of which the poster was hung. In the past, Bajrang Dal created a ruckus at a theatre in Gujarat.
