Actor Shah Rukh Khan came to Mumbai's Arthur Road jail this morning to meet his son Aryan Khan for the first time after he was arrested in the drugs-on-cruise case on October 3. Aryan's bail has been denied twice by a local court.
The superstar, also known as "SRK" by fans, and his wife Gauri Khan had spoken on video call with Aryan last week. The 23-year-old who the Narcotics Control Bureau is investigating has been in touch only with his father's manager, Pooja Dadlani, and their legal team, during court hearings.
