SRK on 'Zero' poster
In November, a petition was filed in the Bombay High Court against the makers of Shah Rukh Khan-starrer 'Zero', including the actor himself, for allegedly hurting the sentiments of the Sikh community.
The petition was filed by Amritpal Singh Khalsa seeking removal of scenes where Shah Rukh Khan has been shown wearing a 'Kirpan' (article of Sikh faith). According to the petition, "Display of the Kirpan in such a way is blasphemous and the scenes should be removed immediately."
