Shah Rukh Khan tweeted on the new Parliament; NCP says Maharashtra BJP leaders will not ban his film.

The Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) on Sunday said BJP leaders in Maharashtra will not call for a ban on superstar Shah Rukh Khan's film as the actor expressed happiness at the inauguration of the new Parliament building.

The actor posted a tweet along with a video with his voice expressing happiness at the inauguration of the new Parliament building by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. "What a wonderful new home for those who support our constitution, represent every citizen of this great nation and protect the diversity of one of its people @narendramodi ji. A new parliament building for a new India but with the old dream of glory. For India. Jai Hind!

Parliament is to the country what the soul is to the body,” the 57-year-old actor said in the clip.

About 20 opposition parties, including the NCP, have decided to boycott the program on the Prime Minister.

Reacting to Khan's comments at the inauguration, NCP national spokesperson Clyde Crasto tweeted, 'Now that Shah Rukh Khan has spoken in favor of the new Parliament building, we will soon see @BJP4 genuflecting in front of Maharashtra leaders and not calling. Ban his movies. "

It may be recalled that Khan's last release "Pathan" drew massive protests from right-wing outfits who called for a ban on the film.
