'If Pepsi is banned in India, I would go to the US and drink it,' says the much-in-news-superstar Shahrukh Khan. He was answering questions to the media personnel at a press conference as a Watch Company's brand ambassador. ' My intention is not to defend the brand I endorse. But I would like to ask the agency (which tested the soft drink for pesticides) whether they have analysed the how safe is the water we drink or if mother's milk also contains harmful chemicals?'
According to Badshah Khan, neither the people who are pulling down hoardings nor the faces on those hoardings have a right to sit in judgement over what is safe is and what is not. 'The final call will have to be taken by the central agencies,' he said. The actor admitted that he still drinks Pepsi despite the controversy and knows many others who do so.
When the questions veered towards 'Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna' Khan said that KANK is not a big film because it has Shahrukh Khan, Amitji, Rani, Preity or Abhishek. 'Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna is big because of Karan Johar. The manner in which he has written this story makes KANK a special film.' So, what's it all about? 'It's about the chord that breaks down in marriages. A relationship mostly ends on a great level of maturity, understanding and even sensitivity. We are not being judgmental as to saying that this is right and that is wrong, it's just a point of view that we are putting across,' says SRK.
