‘Aryan Khan is targetted because he is Shah Rukh Khan’s son’: Shatrugan Sinha

Veteran actor Shatrugan Sinha has extended his support to Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan, who is arrested in a drugs case by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB). Without mincing his words, the veteran actor and politician said that Aryan Khan is targetted as he is SRK’s son and it has given people, ‘a chance to settle scores with the actor.’ Shatrugan also points out that no drugs were recovered from Aryan’s possession.

“Shah Rukh is definitely the reason why the boy is being targeted. There are other names like Munmun Dhamecha and Arbaaz Merchant, but nobody is talking about them. The last time such a thing happened, the focus was on Deepika Padukone, although there were other names involved, and known names too, but the focus was on her only,” Shatrugan told ETimes.

On being asked if it is Shah Rukh’s Muslim identity that has caused the trouble, the veteran actor does not agree. “We cannot say that it’s his religion that has come in the way, but some people have begun using that subject now, which is not right at all. Whoever is an Indian is the son of India and all are equal under our constitution,” he said.
