Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has landed up in legal trouble for publicly smoking at the Sawai Man Singh Stadium during an Indian Premier League (IPL) match.

Jaipur Cricket Academy director Anand Singh Rathore has filed a complaint in Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate court in Jaipur against Khan.

"Smoking publicly is banned in Rajasthan since 2000. However, Shah Rukh Khan was smoking publicly in front of thousands of spectators. The actor was broadcast live while smoking on the TV channel, which was showing the match," Rathore's lawyer Nem Singh Rathore was quotes as saying by DNA.

"The police was confiscating any objectionable items, including cigarettes while frisking. However, it seems Shah Rukh was allowed to carry the cigarette packet into the stadium, which is negligence on part of the police also," he said.

SRK was present at the stadium to cheer his team Kolkata Knight Riders at a match against Rajasthan Royals on Sunday.
