Fake Quote Claims Shah Rukh Khan Said He Would Leave The Country If Modi Became PM

BOOM found that the statement had been made from a fake Twitter handle. Shah Rukh Khan had refuted the claim in 2014.

Claim

A graphic image is being shared on social media where Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan has been credited for saying, "If Modi becomes Prime Minister I will leave not just Twitter but this country too." (Original Text in Hindi: यदि मोदी प्रधानमंत्री बने तो मैं सिर्फ़ ट्वीटर ही नहीं बल्कि देश भी छोड़ दूँगा -शाहरुख़ खान)

Fact

BOOM has debunked the viral claim earlier and found that the statement had been made from a fake Twitter handle - @jamsrk - being operated in the name of Shahrukh Khan. The tweet posted by @jamsrk reads, "It is my challenge to entire world that if @narendramod ji will become next PM then I shall not leave only twitter but India also forever." It was posted on May 18, 2014. Shah Rukh Khan had also clarified in a tweet in 2014 that the viral claim was fake. Click on the link to read full report.
