Shah Rukh in Mumbai

A paparazzo account on Instagram shared a video of Shah Rukh entering a Bandra restaurant from its backdoor. Escorted by heavy security and accompanied by his manager Pooja Dadlani, he was dressed in a black t-shirt, matching jacket, and blue denims. His hair was tied behind his head in a ponytail and he shielded his eyes with dark sunglasses. A few hours later, Shah Rukh was also seen exiting the restaurant. He just wore the black tee and held the jacket in his hand on his way out. He sat into his white SUV which then sped off.

Earlier on Wednesday, Shah Rukh also attended BCCI’s meeting with Indian Premier League stakeholders. The Kolkata Knight Riders owner even reportedly had a heated argument with Ness Wadia, co-owner of Punjab Kings XI and ex boyfriend of Shah Rukh’s Kal Ho Naa Ho and Veer-Zaara co-star Preity Zinta.

When Shah Rukh returned to Mumbai

Last month, after attending a couple of wedding ceremonies of Annat Ambani and Radhika Merchant, Shah Rukh and his family had left for London, where they have been spending weeks as part of pre-production for his next film, King, in which he will share screen space with daughter Suhana Khan.

However, Shah Rukh, wife Gauri Khan, and Suhana rushed to Mumbai when they learnt his longtime collaborator and friend, filmmaker-choreographer Farah Khan lost her mother. They visited Farah’s residence, and Shah Rukh was seen hugging and consoling Farah as she saw them off to their car.

Shah Rukh’s next King will be directed by Sujoy Ghosh. It’s co-produced by his banner Red Chillies Entertainment and Siddharth Anand’s Marflix Pictures. The film will also star Abhishek Bachchan as the chief antagonist.
