Gauri Khan Keeps ‘Mannat’ For Son Aryan During Navratri

Mumbai: Denial of bail to Aryan Khan has come as a huge setback to Shah Rukh Khan and his wife Gauri Khan.

A Mumbai special NDPS court on Thursday reserved its order on his and other co-accused’s bail applications till October 20. Aryan, Arbaaz Merchant and Munmun Dhamecha will remain in judicial custody at the Arthur Road Central Jail and the Byculla Women’s Jail for the next five days on account of public holidays over the next few days.

Gauri is learnt to have kept a ‘mannat’ for Aryan’s return back home soon. ‘Mannat’ is also the name of their family home. A family friend, on condition of anonymity, informed India Today that both Shah Rukh and Gauri are growing extremely worried about Aryan with each passing day. The family friend further said that Gauri has kept a mannat (a wish that one desires to come to fruition) for Aryan and has constantly been praying during the Navratri. She has been off sugar and any sweets since the festival started.

Earlier, a report quoted a close friend of Shah Rukh saying he is “suffering from grief and anger. He is not sleeping and eating much and is just broken like a helpless father.”

News18 had reported that Shah Rukh had put the shooting of his highly anticipated movies, ‘Pathan’ and director Atlee’s next with Nayanthara, on hold indefinitely owing to Aryan’s arrest.
