Shahrukh Khan, who was promoting his upcoming film Raees through a train journey, drew a large crowd at the railway station and things turned tragic as a person lost his life due to a massive heart attack by suffocation.

The actor had arrived on board in the August Kranti Express and the crowd was uncontrollable. In the midst of all the hullabaloo, social activist Farid Khan Pathan of Vadodara was in the crowd with his wife and daughter and unfortunately lost his life. SRK has released a statement on the tragic incident and called it "extremely unfortunate."

Below is the official statement from Shahrukh Khan:

"We started the journey thinking we all will travel, spend time with each other when one of your own loses someone one trip like this, it saddens us all.

One of our colleagues was traveling with us. Her uncle came down to see her at Baroda. He suffered from a cardiac arrest. It was really unfortunate.

We have some of our people with the family members there. Hopefully God will bless her soon.

On behalf of everyone, our prayers and blessings with the whole family. She has reached there. I just spoke to her. I think the burial is in an hour or half hour."
