Neil tells Shahrukh to shut up at Filmfare Awards
Monday, March 08, 2010
The who and who of Bollywood was present at the 55th Filmfare Awards held at the Yash Raj studios. The noisy auditorium turned silent after Neil Nitin Mukesh told his seniors Shahrukh Khan and Saif Ali Khan to shut up.
The delegates at the function feared for the worst, as the memories of director Ashutosh Gowariker bursting out at Farah Khan and Sajid Khan at a film award function, rushed back. Neil lost his cool at the recent Filmfare Award after co-host Shahrukh and Saif tested his patience.
Shahrukh pulled the final trigger by saying why he has three names and no surname. He went on to say that his surname is Khan and so too Saif’s but he has no last name. On being mentioned on his family, Neil got into a rage and told Shahrukh to restrain himself, as his father was in the audience. He didn’t stop there. He told Shahrukh to just ‘shut up’.

After the show, Katrina Kaif went up to Neil and told him to apologise to SRK and Bipasha Basu told him that the act was scary. The actor himself is yet to come out of the incident. The very thought of telling Shahrukh to shut up still shakes him. He said that he even broke eggs on the heads of Shahrukh and Saif at the end of the show.
