Especially SRK has been working with BYJU as a brand ambassador since 2017.
Based on reports, BYJU is paying nearly 3-4 crores per year for Bollywood khan for his efforts. However, recently Shah Rukh Khan’s name is circulating all over social media for the wrong reasons. Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan was recently arrested in a drug case.
The case is taking new turns day by day. A metropolitan magistrate’s court in Mumbai has denied bail to Aryan Khan. However, his involvement in the drug case is not confirmed. But the WhatsApp chat of Aryan Khan is incriminating. For that reason, he is still in NCB’s custody. Whereas his parents, Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan, were absent during the bail plea.
As Aryan Khan’s father, Shah Rukh Khan, also facing the consequences of the situation. Shah Rukh Khan has been trolled on social media platforms heavily for his parenting.
