Actor
Shahrukh
Khan
was
forced
to
offer
apology
after
a
girl
named
Jayashree
took
objection
to
his
use
of
the
word
'dumb'.
The
Bollywood
superstar
was
addressing
a
promotional
event
after
launching
the
music
of
Tamil
version
of
his
latest
film
Ra.One
in
Chennai,
when
the
incident
happened.
Talking
to
the
audience,
Shahrukh
Khan
said
that
he
was
very
keen
to
act
in
Tamil
films
and
he
would
only
play
a
'dumb'
character
because
he
did
not
know
the
language
and
it
would
be
difficult
for
him
to
deliver
dialogues
with
perfection.
But
the
use
of
the
word
'dumb'
landed
him
in
trouble
Audience
Jayashree
made
a
sharp
reaction
to
Shahrukh
Khan's
comment.
She
said
that
he
should
avoid
using
the
word
'dumb'.
So
the
King
Khan
immediately
offered
his
apology
and
asked
her
for
the
right
word
to
refer
the
people
with
speech
impairment
for
which
she
suggested
him
to
use
the
word
'mute'.
