"There are some places (Wankhede Stadium) where they don't allow even Shah Rukh Khan to go. You wait three hours for me out of love, there are people who don't want me," he added.
Earlier, Shah Rukh had expressed his disappointment over Sachin's announcement of retirement.
"When I heard about it I was in Australia... I learnt about it a little late...I felt bad. He has taken the decision as he understands sports better. He did a lot for cricket. He should take rest, relax and enjoy with family," the actor had said.
