Mumbai: The visuals of actor Shah Rukh Khan saying a dua with a person standing next to him with folded hands at the funeral of the legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar won hearts on social media as the frame beautifully captured India’s diversity.
While many thought she was Gauri Khan, some Twitter users pointed out that she was actually SRK’s manager, Pooja Dadlani.
Pooja has been SRK’s manager since 2012 and shares an amazing bond with SRK’s wife, Gauri Khan, and his children Aryan Khan, Suhana Khan and AbRam as well. She was recently also in news during Aryan Khan’s drugs case controversy after it was alleged that she had paid a sum of Rs 50 lakh to an independent witness of the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) for his release.

SRK was also trolled for a facial gesture that they mistook as ‘spitting’ while he was blowing air after the dua to “ward off evil spirits”.
Lata Mangeshkar was cremated with full state honours at the Shivaji Park Ground on Sunday. She had breathed her last in the morning following multi-organ failure while undergoing treatment at Breach Candy Hospital here.
