In a video shared online, we saw how the creator searched for 'KKR owner' on the internet, and SRK's name and face appeared. This led him to Google the map of West Bengal, and he noticed that the map's shape was similar to the structure of the Hakla SRK meme. Silly, right? Well, it is, and it got a lot of laughs too. Check out the video here: Okay that's why ☺️ Will you be fined for sharing 'Hakla Shah Rukh Khan meme'? A page called aaandtv originally shared the viral claim in a satirical post, humorously warning that users could face fines or jail time for posting the 'Hakla' meme. The caption clearly stated: 'Rs 3 lakh fine and 2 years jail for using 'Hakla' GIF or any other distorted GIF of celebrities on social media platforms. New law made by the government. This is NOT real news. This post is completely satire. This post is meant for entertainment purposes only. If you are mentioned above and want it taken down, contact me.' Despite this clear disclaimer, many social media users took the post literally and began resharing it without context, causing confusion and leading others to believe the claim was true when it was not.

What is 'Suja Salman Khan' & 'Banana Akshay Kumar'? Why these memes have flooded Instagram comments section after 'Hakla SRK'
After the 'Hakla Shah Rukh Khan' meme took the internet by storm, social media users have doubled down on the absurdity with even wilder creations like 'Banana Akshay Kumar' and 'Suja Salman Khan'. These bizarre memes feature heavily distorted, exaggerated edits of celebrities, stretching faces, twisting proportions, or morphing them into surreal forms. Despite their ridiculous nature, the trend shows no signs of slowing, as meme-makers continue to push the limits of viral humor with increasingly outrageous edits. Viral 'Banana Akshay Kumar' meme Just like people flooded Shah Rukh Khan's comment section with 'Hakla' memes, they are now flooding Akshay Kumar's comment section with 'Banana Akshay Kumar' memes. But how did this start, and what's the context? Well, according to a viral video on Instagram, Akshay Kumar once spoke about how he maintains his diet while shooting, as he is a fitness enthusiast. In the video, he can be heard saying that when he shoots in places where healthy food isn't available, he resorts to eating bananas. 'Suja Salman Khan' meme explained Coming to the 'Sooja Salman Khan' meme, for context, the photo being used as a GIF is actually from one of his public appearances a few months ago. When he stepped out, people noticed that the actor had visibly gained weight, which led to some trolling. However, if reports are to be believed, the actor gained weight for his film Bull. What is the Hakla Shah Rukh Khan meme? In case you don't know, social media users say the viral 'Hakla Shah Rukh Khan' meme isn't a real photo of the actor but an edited one, where his face is placed on a comedian's body with a funny hairstyle and cartoon-like look. According to content creator Glokus, the meme started nearly ten years ago in a parody video that made fun of SRK's stammering. Though it didn't get much attention back then, it later resurfaced as GIFs and edited clips, going viral even after attempts were made to take it down.

Fact Check: Rs 3 Lakh Fine Or Jail For Posting 'Hakla Shah Rukh Khan' Meme? Here's The Truth
Last Updated: Some reports allege that posting the meme could lead to a fine of up to Rs 3 lakh and a jail term of up to two years. Social media users are constantly introducing new memes and trends. While many of them are funny and entertaining, some cross the line and spark controversy. One such trend is the 'Hakla Shah Rukh Khan' meme. Let's take a closer look at what this meme is about and why it has stirred debate online. The meme trend started from a parody of Shah Rukh Khan's iconic stammering in his 'K‑K‑K‑Kiran" dialogue delivery, using 'hakla"—a Hindi term meaning 'stammerer". It features a funny picture or GIF of Superstar Shah Rukh Khan with an exaggerated hairstyle, like a mohawk or pigtails—illustrating awkward hesitation or speech. While the meme dates back almost a decade, it has recently caught netizens' eyes when reels and GIFs resurged across platforms like Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), and YouTube Shorts. The 'Hakla Meme' Controversy Fact Check- The 'Hakla Shah Rukh Khan Meme' Fine While there have been reports of the fine being charged, reports and the law say that these claims are not true. There is no specific Indian cyber law that imposes an Rs 3 lakh fine or a 2-year jail term for posting the 'Hakla" GIF. While social media platforms may remove such content under their anti-bullying policies, no official government regulation currently enforces such penalties. However, general hate speech provisions exist—such as Karnataka's draft bill, which proposes up to 3 years in jail and a Rs 5,000 fine—they do not specifically address this meme. Additionally, there has been no official statement from the Cyber Cell regarding this issue. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
