No trouble for My Name Is Khan on Day 2 of its release

ON A HIGH: A group of youngsters showing their tickets of My Name Is Khanoutside a cineplex in Thane.

My Name Is Khan entered the second day of its release on a much happier note.

In the absence of Shah Rukh Khan, his wife Gauri Khan made an appearance at many theatres in South Mumbai to thank SRK fans for their support.

"The best thing to say would be Jai Maharashtra. We love Mumbai and Shah Rukh in really excited, and will be coming to the cinemas tomorrow to meet his fans," she said.

Mumbai certainly earned the praise as it came out in great numbers once again, to watch the film with the crowds lining up outside theatres from early in the morning.

Most of the crowd was of college students who had bunked their classes to watch My Name Is Khan.

The robust security outside theatres still continues. Though there were a few sporadic protests in some areas of Maharashtra, the Shiv Sena was nowhere to be seen on the streets of Mumbai and the cine-goers appreciated the efforts of the Mumbai police.

"What is the fear of Shiv Sena when the Mumbai Police is there?" said movie buff Nirmal.

Clearly, the city has spoken is a very clear voice.
