His previous statement on intolerance in India sparked off a controversy and ruined his birthday, so Shah Rukh Khan has chosen to stay quiet about the Eid attacks in Bangladesh, reports Deccan Chronicle.

Talking to the press in Mumbai recently, he said, "Last year media asked me something simple on my birthday and it became an issue. I did not enjoy my birthday and I hold that against everyone."

"Maine kuch aachi, sharif baat ki thi..koi religious galat baat nahi ki thi (I had said something good and not anything wrong). I was telling things to the young people," he added.

"Don't ask me anything as I don't want to spoil my Eid as one doesn't know how it will be taken ahead," he concluded.

The Raees actor clarified that his job is to do good work and make his country proud. "I wish for my country to be peaceful, educative, happy and healthy. One should make the country proud through their work. As an actor, I try to do good work so that there is a name of our country."

"Same way astronauts, bureaucrats, policemen, businessmen etc should work hard in their respective fields that each one of us takes our country forward. So, that's my wish," he added.
