Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has been blamed for ‘spitting’ at Lata Mangeshkar’s funeral that was held at Mumbai’s Shivaji Park. SRK along with her manager Pooja Dadlani came to pay their last respects to the late Lata didi.
In the video that is going viral, SRK can be seen blowing air from his mouth at the funeral. Meanwhile, her manager was seen praying with her folded hands. Now, Urmila Matondkar reacted to the same and has supported the actor.
As per India Today, Urmila stated, “As a society, we have deteriorated so much that we think praying is spitting. You are talking about an actor who has represented the country on various international platforms. Politics has reached such low levels and it's really sad.”
