Shah Rukh Khan’s elaborate #RaeesByRail promotion around the film’s release in January seems to have got him into trouble. A case has been registered against him by the Kota government railway police (GRP) for allegedly “rioting” and “damaging” railway property during the film’s promotion. To promote the film, the actor had travelled on the August Kranti Express from Mumbai to Delhi, which had stopped at several stations including Kota.
A stall owner at the station, Vikram Singh, has alleged that when SRK arrived at the station, there was a stampede-like situation and his fans created a ruckus. Singh said that SRK, while standing at the gate of the coach of the train threw something at the public and they rushed to grab it. And in the commotion, his trolley overturned and items on it were damaged and he got injured.
