Bollywood
superstar
Shahrukh
Khan,
West
Bengal's
brand
ambassador,
Wednesday
expressed
his
unwillingness
to
talk
about
the
terror
blast
in
Burdwan,
but
said
he
prayed
for
better
times
and
hoped
things
would
settle
down
soon.
On
a
whirlwind
trip
to
the
city
to
promote
his
film
Happy
New
Year,
Shahrukh
refused
to
delve
into
the
Oct
2
Burdwan
blast
in
which
terror
outfit
Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen
Bangladesh
is
purportedly
involved.
"At
the
moment
the
place
we
are
in,
it
is
difficult
to
get
into
this.
I
know
situations
go
wrong,
situations
sometimes
are
uncontrollable
and
there
are
going
to
be
issues
all
the
time,
but
it's
not
the
time
to
get
into
that
discussion," he
told
media
persons
in
reply
to
a
question.
The
actor
was
quick
to
add:
"But
being
the
brand
ambassador
of
Bengal,
I
can
pray
for
better
times,
for
good
times.
Things
will
all
settle
down
soon,
things
will
be
all
right."
Shahrukh,
who
also
met
Chief
Minister
Mamata
Banerjee
during
the
day,
assured
he
would
do
his
bit
to
promote
Bengali
films
on
a
large
scale.
Two
suspected
militants
were
killed
and
another
injured
in
the
accidental
blast
that
occurred
at
a
house
in
Khagragarh
in
Burdwan
district.
The
country's
premier
anti-terror
agency,
the
National
Investigation
Agency
(NIA)
is
probing
the
case.
