Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) members today protested against the continuing shooting of Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan’s movie Raees in the district, for his earlier remarks on “intolerance”.

Around 20-30 VHP activists had yesterday handed over a memorandum to district officers and demanded withdrawal of the permission given for the shooting of the film.

They protested outside the district Collector’s office pressing for the exact same requirement now. Why are they not giving any statement on the intolerance there,” he asked.

In December a year ago, workers of right wing organisations had staged protest against Khan in Gujarat, Rajasthan states and called for a boycott of his film “Dilwale” on exactly the same problem.

Shah Rukh Khan had entered the continuing discourse on intolerance on November 2 last year by expressing that there was “extreme intolerance” in the united states.
