SRK defends Karan Johar as #ShameOnKaranJohar trends on Twitter
Mumbai, Mar 22 (IBNS): Filmmaker Karan Johar was on Friday rescued by his friend and actor Shah Rukh Khan after the former was brutally trolled on Twitter for clicking a 'like' on the post that compared Kesari and Zero's collection figures recently.
Khan blamed the 'like' on Johar's fat fingers.
Coming to rescue Johar, SRK tweeted: "I hate clarifications on SM (social media). @karanjohar is technologically challenged but has other good qualities like his taste in clothes!?Just like Life, twitter doesn’t come with instructions, so mistakes r natural....& also he has fat fingers. Go easy all, Make Lov not War...it’s more fun."

Johar earlier defended his stand by saying it happened due to a technical problem.
In a tweet, Johar wrote: "Guys having a technical problem with my twitter account! Strange things are going on!from uploading shoe picture and gibberish to liking tweets I haven’t even read and would NEVER even acknowledge! Please bear with me and I apologise for any inconvenience! Sorting it out asap!"

Drawing a reference to the new song from Kalank, KJo also tweeted: "Aaj twitter pe thodi gadbad ho gayi but baaki sab firstclass hai."
The tweet is no longer available on Karan Johar's timeline but fans of Shah Rukh Khan are sharing screenshots to troll the filmmaker with #ShameOnKaranJohar.

Several of SRK fans have criticised Johar.
For those who think that @karanjohar would have mistakenly liked that tweet, let me tell you one thing that I am very careful and aware of what I like/RT/tweet without being a social media personality but he is. And so he must be aware of what he's doing here.#ShameOnKaranJohar
