Amid the row over Shah Rukh Khan's remarks on 'extreme intolerance' in the country, the Mumbai Police had also beefed up SRK's security (<a title="SRK's security beefed up after row over remarks on 'intolerance'" href="http://www.mid-day.com/articles/srks-security-beefed-up-after-row-over-remarks-on-intolerance/16657191" target="_blank">Read more</a>).
The two had been provided 24x7 security after controversies following their comments on 'intolerance' and increased threat perceptions to their lives, the official said.
Until now, police provided security to around 40 personalities including director Rajkumar Hirani, Farah Khan, Vidhu Vinod Chopra, Ali Morani and Karim Morani. These have been totally withdrawn.
Besides the two Khans, security cover will continue for singer Bharat Ratna Lata Mangeshkar, actors Dilip Kumar, Amitabh Bachchan and Akshay Kumar, directors Mahesh Bhatt and his brother Mukesh Bhatt and a few others.
