SRK on AIB Roast-'Nobody is shoving it down your throat' - Page 5

He played both sides. On one hand he has no problem with it, but on the other hand he talks about having sort of control. It is a more balanced take on the matter. I paid more attention to his other words than the last line.

He also said if you don't like something you watch you can't really blame the person who made it . So I hope the noose around KJO , ranveer and cos neck is loosened 😆 😆

I like what he said about learning to curtail his humor..I think that's important, you have to draw the line somewhere and set a limit for yourself. That's why I didn't like the roast personally..they brought up sensitive, real life issues in order to be funny. With FOS you can either choose to abuse it or use it responsibly ...SRK understands the latter.

Here comes The King's Speech.. simple.. to-the-point.. no nonsense.. Mr. Shah Rukh Khan is the best forever ❤️

Now that is what you call an intelligent response. Proud of my SRK! 👏

Hey Bhagwaan...one more who went by the title🤣...SRK is saying what I have been saying all along...FOS WITH RESPONSIBILITY.....I don't think the interview was that hard to comprehend

I did read the entire article. You are showing very selective reading. Which is not surprising. Considering your favorite has spoken something very opposite to what you are arguing. I was totally expecting you to read selectively and pick and choose.

This is the crux of what he is saying, it is nothing more or nothing less than what us freedom of speech proponents have said. Let everyone do what they wish.

"There is always freedom of expression and there is a choice you have to make. I always say that if you don't like something don't watch it. Nobody is shoving it down your throat but if you don't like something and you have watched it then live with it. There are a lot of movies that I have watched and don't like but I don't have the right to go and blame the person who made them"

As for everything you have highlighted in giant bold red as part of your selective reading here http://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4315039&PID=119759248&#p119759248

These are all "I" statements. They are applicable only to him as a person. He makes it very clear several times that he is speaking only of himself and what he does as a celebrity. He is not judging, condemning or denying anyone else the freedom to do what they do.

You only see "I think I have become very aware of the fact that I need to follow some control aspect"

But you completely ignore what comes before it "The beauty of today's media is that the power of choice is in your hand, you can decide to watch or not watch something" or what he says after it "But I will not be able to comment on what others do, how they do or why they do"

Perhaps in your selective reading you didn't grasp that he is talking only about what he does. Perhaps in your selective reading you didn't grasp that he is not advising that everyone else to the same. Perhaps in your selective reading you didn't grasp that he repeated several times that audiences have the choice of what to watch and they shouldn't react to it. Perhaps in your selective reading you didn't grasp that nowhere did he actually call the show violent, offensive, inappropriate or a mistake. Perhaps in your selective reading you didn't grasp that he actually is admitting to having to walk on eggshells as a celebrity.

It is cool because I think most of us expected it from you. You will defend Aamir Khan's creative freedom even if some Hindus were offended. However, you will not defend AIB's creative freedom because you were the one offended. Its a nice policy. Free speech is all awesome and cool as long as you are not the one offended. 👍🏼

OMG...What a perfect answer...love it love it love it...Just what I have been saying all along...WHEN U R STAR PEOPLE LISTEN TO U AND U NEED TO ZIP IT SOMETIMES...amazing...and this is why I love this man...my respect for him has now increased 10 times❤️

@ Hiesenberg...Did u not read the whole interview and just read the title of the thread? 😆🤣...Not ur fault if u went by just the title...I had almost removed my siggy and then I saw the whole thing.😆..isn't My Shahrukh just perfect

Nice try blue-ice 😆... what SRK said here is not what you've been saying at all, you went from demanding a ban, criminalizing the issue, to censorship, to endorsing Aamir's ridiculous views, all because you got offended. 😆 SRK has not said any of this. 😆

On the contrary, SRK has said exactly the same thing we've been saying from the start, if you don't like something, don't watch it, it's exactly the same thing that KJo said when he posted "If it's not your cup of tea, don't drink", which you took a huge exception to 😆, but now that SRK has said it, it's suddenly become "reasonable". 😆

We told you that to watch or not to watch is a choice you make, and that if you decid to watch content that offends you despite plethora of warnings, then don't complain afterwards, and guess what?, your favourite star said the exact same thing! 🤣... just read the whole article again, he emphasizes on "choice". 😉😆

There's a big difference between what Aamir said and what SRK said, Aamir said that he scolded them, and then "appealed/requested" them not to do this again, what a great way to make a request 😆... what SRK said was, "But I will not be able to comment on what others do, how they do or why they do,"
