SRK is in full support of the Indian women hockey team and has taken his role from the reel to the real though not as a couch.

Saddened by the plight of women players of the sport in real life, SRK has twitted in his blog saying, "Films reflect reality and how it will be good in the end. But real life is so tough. Happy endings are a rarity," reacting to the protest by the women hockey players.

The Bollywood actor, who earlier came out in support of the men's hockey team that boycotted practice session ahead of the World Cup owing to non payment of dues, spoke his mind in favour of the women's team that revolted on similar ground.

"Though Chak De will be good for revival of hockey. Reading the plight of women's team should think on ways of survival of hockey. All of us,” he wrote.

He took the plight further by adding that in India there is no respect for sporting heroes and said legends like Sunil Gavaskar, Aslam Sher Khan, Dhanraj Pillai, PT Usha, and Pargat Singh are ignored.
