A video clip is doing the rounds on social media showing Bollywood actors Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra having a conversation. In the clip, Priyanka asks SRK how he is feeling in jail to which he replies that he is okay except for the colour of his uniform.

Social media users have shared the claim that it is from SRK’s upcoming film Pathaan.

The video is being shared with the text: हीरोइन ने पूछा जेल कैसा लग रहा है तो शाहरुख कहता है यहां ऐसा क्या है बस मैं इस कमीज के रंग से खुश नहीं हूं। कमीज भगवा रंग की है, ये लोग अपनी नफ़रत फिल्म से करोड़ो लोगो में भर देते हैं कि खान को भगवा रंग पसन्द नहीं। और चाहता है कि हिंदू समुदाय जो भगवा रंग को धारण करते हैं, यह उस भगवा रंग से नफरत कर्ता है, भाईयों जिन्हें भगवा रंग पसंद नहीं उसे आप भी नापसंद करो। धक्का दो शाहरुख खान की पठान फिल्म को* #Boycott_PATHAN_Movie पठान मूवी (English translation: Heroine asked how the jail and Shah Rukh replied: It’s okay, I am not happy with the colour of this shirt.
