SRK's London holiday pics go viral, fans debate his silence on NEET protest
Shah Rukh Khan was seen in London with his family as videos from the trip spread online. The sighting renewed debate over his silence on the NEET paper leak protests.
Actor Shah Rukh Khan was recently seen holidaying in London with his family. Several pictures and videos of the actor with his wife, Gauri Khan, and children, Suhana, Aryan and AbRam, have surfaced on social media. The superstar's holiday and his silence on the protests over irregularities in NEET have stirred an online debate.
In one viral video, Shah Rukh, dressed in baggy trousers, a plain T-shirt and a hoodie, is seen walking through the streets of London, with Aryan and AbRam following him. His appearance has also restarted an online conversation about his silence on the protest, with some social media users asking why he has not commented on the issue.
An X user wrote, "He should release his upcoming movies only in London. India doesn't want him anyway. Indian youth will definitely remember him when his next movie releases."
At the same time, some fans defended Shah Rukh. One user wrote, “People are now calling him ‘spineless’, but where were they when people tried to break his spirit every time he spoke for his country? Every time he expressed an opinion, he was labelled with all kinds of names. Now people are asking why he does not speak.”
Over the past few years, Shah Rukh has gone through both professional success and personal challenges. After the commercial failure of Zero in 2018, he took a four-year break before returning with Pathaan, Jawan and Dunki. While Pathaan and Jawan were major box-office successes, Dunki received a comparatively modest response.
In 2021, Shah Rukh's son Aryan Khan was arrested in connection with the Mumbai cruise drugs case and spent 26 days in judicial custody. He was later given a clean chit in 2022 after investigators found no evidence against him, and his name did not feature in the chargesheet. Since then, Shah Rukh has largely stayed away from public commentary, making appearances mostly to promote his films.
Meanwhile, the nationwide student movement has drawn support from several members of the film industry. Actors including Shabana Azmi, Sonakshi Sinha and Prakash Raj were among the earliest to voice their support for the protesters and question the government's handling of the issue. They were later joined by Salman Khan and Alia Bhatt, who expressed solidarity with the students.
On Saturday, Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan submitted his resignation to Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the NEET paper leak. He announced it in a post on X. Many celebrities reacted to his resignation, which included actors Vijay Varma, Priyanka Chopra, Alia, Sonakshi and Ishaan Khatter.
