Saeed's comment poured in response to an article in which Shah Rukh Khan talked about difficulties of being a Muslim in India.
In an interview to Outlook Turning Points, the actor recently said, "I sometimes become the inadvertent object of political leaders who choose to make me a symbol of all that they think is wrong and unpatriotic about Muslims in India...
I have been accused of bearing allegiance to our neighbouring nation rather than my own country."

Hafiz Saeed, in an interview aired by Pakistan's Express TV channel, responded `Shah Rukh is welcome in Pakistan and he can live here for as long as he wants.`
