Twitter broke my heart: Shah Rukh Khan

When actor Shah Rukh Khan made his entry into the world of Twitter, it became a talking point in the glam world. The regular postings by the actor too made it to the headlines. But before the year came to a close, his posts stopped, making everyone wonder why. Well, here it is: King Khan is still reeling from the aftershock of abuses he received online.

"I registered on Twitter because Karan (Johar) suggested it to me. I thought that it would be fun interacting with all my fans directly. But then something happened recently, which broke my heart. I was left wondering as to why I was being subjected to all this," says the actor while taking a break between his rehearsals at the venue of the Zee Cine Awards in Singapore.

Elaborating further, the actor says that some of his followers posted a few nasty gaalis on his page. "Everybody's entitled to freedom of speech but posting gaalis and abusive words is another matter. I certainly don't deserve it. My son (Aryan) came to know about one such case and asked me, 'Dad, who are these people? Why on earth should they talk to you like that?' That's when I decided to take a break from it. Recently, when I posted something on Ra.One, the abusive postings reappeared again. When something bad is written about me, at least I know who's behind it,but these (on Twitter) are faceless and nameless people. They are just getting a kick by giving gaalis to Shah Rukh Khan, I'm bewildered by all this," he says candidly.

These incidents, says SRK, has forced him to re-think his outlook towards life. "Earlier, I never bothered about such things. But today I have two kids who are growing up very fast. They look up to me. I have my employees who also look up to me. What was nothing to me in the past is something in the present. Something's changing within me as my kids and I get older at the same time. I think I'm becoming reclusive as I grow older. I feel the need to cut myself off from negative energies," he ends.
