Actually Shahrukh Khan, this story is from the year 1990. When he was so upset with an underworld don that he said, 'You shoot me'. This don was none other than the dreaded gangster Abu Salem.
If reports are to be believed, Abu Salem was after Shahrukh at that time after a complaint by a film producer. As soon as Rakesh Maria, a senior officer in Mumbai Police at that time, got information about this, he reached Shahrukh Khan along with Mahesh Bhatt.
After this the actor was given police protection. Then the matter became quiet for some time. Then when Shahrukh Khan was shooting for his film 'Dil To Pagal Hai', he got a call from an unknown number.
On this call to Shahrukh Khan, the person in front asked him what is his condition. So Shahrukh replied in English. Due to which Abu Salem present on the other side got very angry at the actor and also started abusing him.
Then Shahrukh Khan talked to Abu Salem without any fear and asked him, Sir, what is your problem. So Abu Salem said that I am sorry to hear that you do not promote Muslim filmmakers by working with them.
But Shahrukh Khan cleared the misunderstanding of Abu Salem. Because at this time the actor was working with Abbas Mastan, Aziz Mirza, Mansoor Khan. When Abu came to know about this, he told Shahrukh that now you do not need the police. I will not kill you.
However, this matter did not settle down here either. After this, Abu Salem started calling the actor repeatedly and also gave advice regarding films. In such a situation, once Shahrukh became so angry that he got angry at Abu Salem.
Shahrukh Khan said that I do not tell you whom to shoot. You can shoot me if you want. But it would be better if you also don't give me advice on films. Let us tell you that this story has been mentioned in Shahrukh Khan's book 'King of Bollywood'.
