New Delhi: Shah Rukh Khan's presence at cricket matches involving the Indian Cricket team has triggered some controversy as some newspapers quoted an unnamed BCCI official saying that cricket was a bigger platform than a private television station and that he was using this to build brand value.

King Khan was was last seen at the Jaipur One-Dayer on Sunday and was earlier around for the T20 world cup final and India's T20 game versus Australia in Mumbai.

"What I read in the article today is - using the platform of cricket in terms of the reach of this game for promoting one's movies or one's activities is what i think is probably a slightly debatable topic," said Ratnakar Shetty.

To which Shahrukh Khan responded, "I am disappointed by the comment of my promoting film at cricket match. I watch match for my son. I will only talk about my films. Next time I probably will not go for match."
