Shah Rukh Khan gets mobbed by the shutterbugs and fans during the music launch of film ‘Jai Jagannath’.

It is not always easy to be loved and mobbed by the media and fans. Shah Rukh Khan learned it the hard way, when his arrival for the launch of a film caused a glass door to break over both fans and media alike.

The price of being a celebrity can certainly be overwhelming sometimes, as the Bollywood ‘King Khan’ learnt the hard way on the occasion of the music launch of the mythological film "Jai Jagannath'. Khan and director Mani Ratnam were the guests of honor at the event.

A routine music release it was - till the King Khan arrived and the media struggled for one glimpse of the man! First it was crowds jumping on each other, and then a glass door that shattered all over leaving King Khan with mild bruises. But taking it all in good spirit, Shah Rukh said that it was but an example of people’s love. What’s a glass door?

“The media's overtures are always like this - in fact, their love is not complete without some shattered glass thrown in for good measure. So thank you, that you all love me so much. May buildings and monuments crumble next time,” said Khan flashing that dimple, and assured everyone that he wasn’t hurt. “I have been abroad for a month, so I guess the people really missed me,” he added sheepishly.
