Journos walks out of press confce for late arrival by SRK

Journalists have walked out of a press conference attended by Shah Rukh Khan (SRK) in India's Chennai on Friday after the Bollywood superstar had arrived several hours late. Quoting unnamed sources the Hindu online reports: ‘The error was because of a miscommunication between two public relations managers. Media were asked to assemble at 4:00pm for a press conference at the ITC Grand Chola, slated to begin at 4:30pm. After what seemed an interminable wait, the star walked in only at about 8:00pm,’ the report said. The event was a fashion show for Palam Silks, cross-promoted with Shah Rukh’s next film, ‘Happy New Year’. The rest of the ‘Happy New Year’ cast are also in Chennai for the event’, it said, adding ‘The angry journalists raised their voices, and despite assurances from Shah Rukh promising exclusives with each of them, and left the premises.’
