Is He So Stupid: SRK’s Close Friend Calls Leaked Chats With Sameer Wankhede ‘FAKE’; Argues It’s Authenticity

Shah Rukh Khan's Leaked Chat With Sameer Wankhede In Aryan Khan Case: Shah Rukh Khan has once again caught the eyeballs after his alleged chats with the ex-zonal director of Mumbai Narcotics Control Bureau, Sameer Wankhede went viral on social media.

The WhatsApp chat that surfaced on social media on May 19, 2023, highlighted SRK profusely begging Wankhede to go easy on his son Aryan Khan after he was arrested by the NCB officials for allegedly being involved in Mumbai's cruise drug case. Now, a close friend of SRK has rubbished the chats stating the actor doesn't use WhatsApp.

SHAH RUKH KHAN'S CLOSE FRIEND CLAIMS LEAKED CHATS ARE FAKE

In a conversation with ETimes, the Pathaan actor's friend challenged the authenticity of the leaked chats. Explaining the reasons behind his claim, the person said that SRK doesn't talk like this and furthermore he never pleaded for his son. He told the portal, "The chats could not have happened. SRK never uses WhatsApp. If these chats are authentic, then he created a chat box for Mr. Wankhede. Is he so stupid as to put himself out there in the public domain? The language used the pauses, and the way the father is seen pleading for his son... are all highly unlikely to be authentic. SRK doesn't talk like that."

SRK's friend during the chat also recalled how the actor was anxious but still maintained his calm when Aryan was in jail as he was quite confident about his son's innocence. He added, "When his son was jailed, he contacted no one to get Aryan out. He believed firmly in letting the law take its course. Night after sleepless night, SRK waited for his son to be released. He did not plead with any government officer for his son's freedom. He knew Aaryan was innocent. He waited."

ABOUT ARYAN KHAN DRUG CASE

For the uninitiated, Aryan Khan was arrested by the NCB on October 3, 2021, after the officials raided a party on a Goa-bound cruise ship. The star kid was booked for the alleged consumption of drugs. However, he was later granted bail on October 28, 2021, due to lack of evidence.
