<p style="text-align: center;">Shah Rukh Khan has received a five-year ban from Wankhede Stadium after an alleged drunken brawl with Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) officials following a Kolkota Knight Riders match this week.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">MCA President Vilasrao Deshmukh told Hindustan Times: &#8220;If rules are violated, action will be taken. It does not depend who the individual is. It&#8217;s a message.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&#8220;How can he go inside the ground without proper accreditation? Even I can&#8217;t go inside the ground if not invited for a presentation ceremony.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&#8220;We have handed a five-year ban on him and it was a unanimous decision. It applies to any match whether domestic or international at the Wankhede.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Khan reportedly smelled of alcohol, but has denied that he was drunk during the incident.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">Abhishek Bachchan has revealed he misses his wife Aishwarya Rai-Bachchan&#8217;s attention after the couple had their baby daughter in November 2011.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&#8220;Ash&#8217;s day starts and ends with the baby. Since she insists on doing everything for Aaradhya, including giving her a massage, bathing her and attending to her round-the-clock, I&#8217;m now waiting in [a] queue for Ash&#8217;s attention.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&#8220;Aaradhya wakes up in the night for her feed and a nappy change. Ash, who&#8217;s completely clued in, is up in a jiffy. However, I must confess, it took time for me to get used to the new routine.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&#8220;When the baby cried, I woke up too, but couldn&#8217;t go back to sleep immediately. So Ash suggested that I sleep in another room till such time as Aaradhya was slightly older.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Aishwarya will be at Cannes this month with baby Aaradhya.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">The Wanted&#8217;s Siva Kaneswaran has revealed he was approached to appear in a new Bollywood film!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&#8220;It was so funny. He approached me and gave me this long speech about making me a star over there and that they wanted me to be the lead in the film,&#8221; Kaneswaran is quoted by <em>The Sun</em> as saying.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&#8220;He said he wanted the other lads too, but only as pretend group members in the background in a few scenes.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Siva insisted that his fellow band members didn&#8217;t take offence to the offer, commenting: &#8220;They saw the funny side.&#8221;</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">The BBC has shown regret to Sikhs over DJ Nihal Arthanayake’s comments on a radio show suggesting that Sikhism is “made up of other religions” such as Islam.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Sikh leaders accused the corporation’s Asian Network of displaying “irresponsible and misleading” attitude and suggesting that their religion was simply a “hotchpotch” of other faiths.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">It followed a phone-in broadcast in March in which the presenter DJ Nihal Arthanayake – best known as a Radio 1 DJ – touched on the relationship between Sikhism, which was founded in Punjab in the 15th Century, and the other two predominant religions in India at the time.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">A text message from a listener was read out complaining about the “incredibly offensive” way the presenters had suggested that Sikhism was “made up from other religions ie Islam and Hinduism”.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The DJ, known simply as Nihal on air, replied: “I’m sorry with all due respect, it is, absolutely it is.”</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">He went on: “A Muslim laid the stone to the holiest places, with all due respect I know more about your religion than you do.”</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">A spokeswoman for BBC Asian Network said: “We have reviewed the transmission from the Nihal phone-in on March 13 and agree that this short excerpt was less than satisfactory.</p>
