SRK trolled in social media for post on Ganesh Chaturthi
Mumbai/IBNS: Superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who celebrates Ganesh Chaturthi with his family every year, was trolled for his post on the festival.
Apparently the trolls had a problem with SRK celebrating the Hindu festival as he is a Muslim.
The actor shared a black-and-white image of himself with a red teeka on his forehead.
In his post, Khan wrote: "Prayers and visarjan done... This #GaneshChaturthi, may Lord Ganesha bestow upon you and your loved ones, blessings and happiness... Ganpati Bappa Morya!"
