Shahrukh Khan offers Id Namaz in his bunglow

Shahrukh Khan has said that he offers Id prayers at the roof of his house along with Muslim friends as he would get mobbed in mosque and this will distract others.

Speaking to Urdu journalists in an exclusive interactive session, Khan said that as per custom he prays in 'jamaat' along with other Muslims who gather at the roof of his bungalow Mannat on the occasion of Eid.

Khan said that his upcoming movie 'My name is Khan' gives the message to Muslims that they should focus on education. He also said that he never faced any discrimination because of his religion.

"I am proud of the fact that in India I have achieved tremendous success in career and got love from all communities though a section of Muslims targeted me".

Khan had earlier spoken to Hindi journalists and has now interacted with journalists of Urdu newspapers and magazines. 'My name is Khan' revolves around the story of a Muslim youth who goes to America in the aftermath of 9/11 and faces a host of problems.
