SRK's humour lands him in trouble again!

Seems to be a bad time for B-town indeed, after Shiney's debacle, Shah Rukh Khan has found himself in a soup after he compared The Prophet to the likes of Hitler and Churchill.

Earlier, we reported that he spoke about two kinds of muslims. One who like Allah, and the other who prefer Moolah! That too didn't go down well with the keepers of faith.

This time, on June 18, 2009, a representative from the Mumbai Aman Committee, registered a case against Khan, for 'outraging religious sentiments.' If proven guilty, he could face a three-year jail term. Shah Rukh is shooting in the US (United Satates of America) for Karan Johar's My Name Is Khan currently.

StarBoxOffice spoke to a couple of celebs on how careful they are when talking about religion and faith in Bollywood.

Sonu Sood

"Religion is a very sensitive issue, and if someone in the film fraternity speaks of something such as this, fingers are bound to rise. Shah Rukh has obviously not said this in a derogatory context and I know for sure things will get sorted out. When it comes to me, I try to avoid the subject of religion as far as possible because I know someone or the other will take the matter in the wrong note."

Adah Sharma

"Celebrity or no celebrity, when anyone speaks of religion, it's always blown out of proportion. I am no one to comment on Shah Rukh but I do feel whatever he has said has been misconstrued. Religion is a very touchy issue and its all on how you deal with it, I try to be careful when it comes to such subjects."

Raj Singh Chaudhary

"Religion is a sensitive issue and one should refrain from talking about it. Being a celebrity, Shah Rukh's quote has been blown out of proportion. Such subjects tend to cause trouble and even if you're not a celeb you are bound to face the wrath of religious groups. I feel it was pretty much like a Chinese whisper, people get volatile and take advantage of the situation to bring someone down."

Deepak Dobriyal

"It's a very personal matter, obviously Shah Rukh did not intend on hurting anyone's feeling and must have said it in a different context. Being a celebrity you are always under the scanner, religion is a touchy subject and I make sure I refrain from talking about such things. An actor's religion is his work and art. He will not say anything to hurt anybody or do anything that will hurt his fans and followers."
