Narrating the ordeal, SRK said, "I came by train for the first time when I came to Mumbai. The train would turn into a local after entering Mumbai which I was not aware of. So I did not let a few people sit on my berth saying that it is mine, 'I paid for it.' I did offer it to a lady, though, saying, 'you can sit but I won't let the men with you sit on my berth'. And that lady slapped me real hard saying that 'it isn't yours, it is everybody's."

Not quite the welcome one would expect into a new city!

However, Shah Rukh Khan denied that the 'fan' character he plays bears resemblance to his 'psycho' characters in films 'Darr' and 'Baazigar'.
