This line got the internet’s attention parallels Shah Rukh’s real life when his son Aryan Khan was arrested in 2021 for possession of drugs. The investigation continued for weeks, since it was a non-bailable offence before he was released on bail. Later, Aryan was given a clean chit as Sameer Wankhede, an investigating officer on the case, was accused of asking for bribe from Shah Rukh.
