2015 seems to be a year full of legal tension for the B-town celebs. The trend started with Sanjay Dutt who got convicted for 5 years by the Supreme Court for his 1993 Bombay blasts case and continued with the case of hunting and killing of endangered Deer specie by the cast of Hum Saath Saath Hain movie while they were shooting in Jaipur. Later, followed by Salman Khan's conviction of 2002 hit-and-run case. Now, we have Shah Rukh Khan who has fallen into a legal problem.

King Khan who usually maintains a safe distance from controversies this time has landed himself in one big mess. Shah Rukh Khan has received an authoratitive call by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) over forex violation after it was found that Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) team shares were undervalued.

During the inquiry of IPL cricket teams last month which violated several rules for money transaction, ED had summoned Shah Rukh Khan interrogating him about the violation. An audit by the Enforcement Directorate concluded that Kolkata Knight Rider's shares were undervalued during a transfer transaction.

Shah Rukh will have to appear before the Enforcement Directorate by month of end, stated a report.
