Bollywood megastar Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan was taken to court in Mumbai on Monday afternoon, a day after he and seven others were arrested following a raid at a party on a cruise ship off the coast of Mumbai by the Narcotics Control Bureau.
Reportedly the star kid has applied for bail today, and the investigating agency is seeking his custody for further probe in the drug case. Aryan Khan’s lawyer Satish Maneshinde demanded bail, saying his client had been arrested only based on chat messages.
Shah Rukh Khan’s wife, Gauri Khan, was spotted while leaving their Bandra bungalow Mannat and heading towards the court.
Amid the controversy, fans of King Khan have taken to the Twitter platform to extend support to SRK. Bollywood superstar Salman Khan visited Shah Rukh Khan’s residence on Sunday afternoon.
Aryan has been booked under section 27 (punishment for consumption of any narcotic drug or psychotropic substance), 8C (produce, manufacture, possess, sell or purchase of drugs) and other relevant provisions of the Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act (NDPS).
Besides Aryan Khan, the anti-drugs agency arrested seven others detained from the ship – Munmun Dhamecha, Nupur Sarika, Ismeet Singh, Mohak Jaswal, Vikrant Chhoker, Gomit Chopra, Arbaaz Merchant.
