Shah Rukh Khan, one of the owners of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), might face trouble after being seen smoking at the stadium during the match between Kolkata and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Eden Gardens.
Shah Rukh Khan Caught Smoking In The Stands During KKR vs SRH Match
Shah Rukh Khan has a history of getting into trouble at IPL matches. In 2012, he confronted security staff and officials during a KKR vs. Mumbai Indians game. As a result, the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) imposed a five-year ban on him, prohibiting him from entering MCA premises, including the Wankhede Stadium.
Shah Rukh Khan might be in trouble again after he was caught smoking a cigarette during the IPL 2024 match between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) on Saturday (March 23).
