Shoulder pain stalls Shah Rukh’s act

Everybody was waiting with bated breath for Shah Rukh Khan to take on the mantle of the show-host at the IIFA awards. And as always, King Khan didn’t disappoint. He had his audience in splits with his jokes and wisecracks. But unfortunately, that didn’t last for long. While performing a dance number from his next film Chennai Express, Shah Rukh’s shoulder pain became severe. His doctors had advised him not to dance but SRK was too keen to promote his film in a way only he can.
“We had asked SRK to not dance. We were okay with him anchoring the show as his health was fine overall. But he was adamant on completing the dance act and he did. Throughout the dance performance SRK couldn’t move his hand,” says a source.
Dancing with one hand can be a task, especially when one has recently undergone surgery. “The dance performance begun without him with just dancers in the background as he was in excruciating pain,” says an eyewitness.
In spite of the mishap, the incident is one more example of the superstar’s determination and passion for his work.
