#BoycottShahRukhKhan trends after SRK, PM Imran's photo goes viral

Indian Twitter has been wrecking a storm on the internet after the hashtag #BoycottShahRukhKhan started trending.

The entire debacle that created a frenzy on social media stems from viral pictures where the King of Bollywood was clicked with Prime Minister Imran Khan from an event back in 2008.

Sparking outrage, several users retweeted the picture calling for a boycott against Shah Rukh. Moreover, SRK's character of a Muslim RAW agent in the upcoming film Pathan also struck a nerve of Hindu fundamentalists 

Turning to Twitter, fans expressed rage as they tweeted against the superstar and lambasted his views whilst accusing him of being ProPakistani.
