Shah Rukh Khan has clarified his relationship with the founder of Cineyug Films Karim Morani who is in jail for his alleged involvement in 2G scam. He also requested mediapersons not to drag him into the whole issue.
The superstar said the arrest of Bollywood bigwig Karim Morani will not affect his personal and professional relationship with the financier.
He also rubbished suggestions that Cineyug, which is owned by Morani, had transferred funds to Kalaignar TV through his production house Red Chillies Entertainment.
"I have personal relations with several people in the industry. Cineyug has been part of the industry much before I came in. Lot of actors and actresses are friendly with the Moranis who are good people. The matter is sub-judice and the law will take its own course. We are all law abiding people," SRK told reporters here.
"On personal level, equations don't change," he added.
The actor said Morani stepped in as the associate producer of his film Ra.One because his close friend and associate producer Bobby Chawla fell ill. "Some one had to fill in, so I asked a friend (Morani) and he did a great job," he said.
Morani's Cineyug Films is known for organising Shah Rukh's world tour and Morani's daughter Zoa Morani is making her acting debut with the superstar's production venture Always Kabhi Kabhi, slated to hit the screens June 17.
When a reporter said the CBI probing the financial transactions of Cineyug in the last five years, had stumbled upon information that Morani had routed funds to Kalaignar TV through Red Chillies Entertainment, Shah Rukh said," I don't think anybody has said that. Don't sensationalise the issue and involve me in it."
The actor hoped that the case concerning Morani would be sorted out before the release of Ra.One later this year. Replying to a question that Morani had asked Sunanda Pushkar, wife of Congress MP Shashi Tharoor to buy stakes in Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Shah Rukh said he had never approached any body to buy stakes in his IPL team. "I got to know her recently," he said.
Shah Rukh also spoke about his upcoming movie Ra.One and said that he has done more than 75 per cent stunts in the movie himself. "The stunts were extremely difficult. When I look at the shots, I myself get very surprised. I don't believe if I have done them," he said.
