Mumbai:
Shah Rukh Khan prefers to lay low instead of hitting back at rude tweeters
Shah Rukh Khan has disappeared from his micro-blogging site for over a month and a half. He last tweeted on his birthday November 2 stating "Birthday with the babies at the shoot in Berlin."
And then strangely, went quiet.
Considering that the eloquent star was pretty active, his long silence has led to all types of speculation as SRK did not announce that he is taking a sabbatical from Twitter as others do.
Certain sections also feel that he has gone off to avoid any questions pertaining to Tees Maar Khan and Farah Khan.
However a source close to the actor rubbishes the rumour, "Shah Rukh had been receiving a lot of negative comments lately. He was upset and hurt as a result. And that is why he has withdrawn. He preferred to lie low instead of hitting back through the micro blogging site."
"Also, he doesn't believe in blocking people who post negative comments but he is in a head space where he doesn't want any kind of negativity," the source further added
In an upcoming episode of Koffee With Karan, the actor has confessed to the reason behind his disappearance from Twitter.
He said, "I feel love from lakhs of people but there are lots of people who say rude things about my family and friends and that hurts me. I don't want to read those things, so I am staying away from Twitter."
An insider who was present while filming adds, "SRK's show is totally non-controversial. It is like no other episode of KWK. He spoke about love, friends, family and it got really emotional.
Most people on the set were dewy-eyed while filming, including the host." The episode airs on January 1, 2011.
