Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has praised Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's decision to demonitise Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 currency notes to curb black money. He says it isn't politically motivated and is a great move.

The central government on late Tuesday night notified the changes.

"Farsighted. Extremely smart. And not politically motivated. Will bring such a positive change for Indian economy. Great move Narendra Modi," Shah Rukh tweeted on Wednesday night.
