Some time back it was a Goa-based anti tobacco organization that served a legal notice to actor and KKR team owner Shah Rukh Khan for smoking in public at a summit and at a cricket tournament in Mumbai. Well this year, yet one more complaint was filed in a court in Jaipur on Monday against SRK for publicly smoking on the Sawai Man Singh Stadium during a cricket match on Sunday.
Bollywood Hungama has learnt that the complaint lodged by lawyer Nem Singh Rathore on behalf of Jaipur Cricket Academy director Anand Singh Rathore was submitted within the court of the extra chief judicial magistrate, which has since fixed the date of April 12 for hearing within the matter. Apparently, smoking public is banned in Rajasthan since 2000. However, Shah Rukh Khan was smoking publicly in front of thousands of spectators.
Further, the complainant added that while other viewers within the stadium were frisked and their cigarette packets were confiscated, the actor was allowed entry, that's negligence on a part of the police also.
