SRK’s upcoming movie Jawan launched its trailer on 31st August, and it has become the town’s talk among netizens.
The entire trainwreck of speculations began with SRK releasing the official teaser for his next flick Jawan on August 31. The two-minute-45-second trailer is being praised by the netizens and the movie is being much waited upon. However, the dialogue bete ko haath lagane se pehle, baap se baat kar, has been doing rounds under the speculations of the netizens as they think it’s a clear reference to SRK’s son Aryan Khan and Cordelia Cruise’s drug bust case, which had Sameer Wankhede at the centre of tension.

A quick glance into Cordelia Cruise’s drug bust case
Former Narcotics Control Bureau zonal director Sameer Wankhede is one of the key suspects in the bribery case involving Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan. In October 2021, Khan’s son Aryan was detained following a narcotics bust on the Cordelia cruise ship. However, later events cast doubt on Sameer Wankhede’s role, with the officer becoming an accused in the Aryan Khan bribery case.
Expected WhatsApp conversation between Shah Rukh Khan and Sameer Wankhede
The Free Press Journal obtained exclusive access to an alleged series of WhatsApp discussions between Shah Rukh Khan and Former Mumbai Zonal Director of NCB Sameer Wankhede in May 2023. The alleged chats between the actor and the ex-NCB official are also covered in Wankhede’s petition to have the CBI FIR in opposition to him dismissed.
SRK contacted and pleaded with Wankhede on WhatsApp on October 14, 2021, more than ten days after Aryan Khan’s arrest, stating,
“You are a good man. Please be kind to my son. My son will break as a human being. I can only plead and beg you as a father. Please. You promised you will reform my child. I would never stand in front of what you are doing. I have just believe in your goodness.”
