Shah Rukh Khan and his fandom need no introduction. Over the years, King Khan has won hearts with his blockbuster performances and sharp wit. His fans, in turn, leave no stone unturned to catch a glimpse of him. This time, one fan tried a rather unusual trick—posing as a delivery agent to sneak into SRK’s iconic Bandra home, Mannat. Needless to say, the plan didn’t work.
The Failed Entry Attempt
A fan named Shubham Prajapat shared his failed attempt on social media. In the video, he is seen ordering coffee for Shah Rukh Khan on Zomato and then persuading the delivery partner to let him deliver the order himself. When he reached the front gate of Mannat, the guards redirected him to another entrance.
Hoping he was finally close to success, Shubham tried convincing the security at the back gate to let him in. However, the guard asked him to call the person who had placed the order. Despite repeated attempts, the fan couldn’t get past. One of the guards even quipped, “Ek phone karega toh poora coffee wala nachega uske saamne” (If Shah Rukh Khan himself makes a call, the entire coffee shop would start dancing).
Why Meeting SRK Was Impossible Anyway
But even if he had somehow managed to get inside, chances of meeting SRK were slim. The superstar hasn’t been living in Mannat this year. Earlier in February, he and his family moved out after leasing two luxury properties from Jackky and Vashu Bhagnani. In June, Gauri Khan told News18 that Mannat’s renovation was “shaping up really well,” though it may take another year to complete.
Renovation Roadblocks at Mannat
The restoration hasn’t been smooth sailing either. In June, Mannat came under the scanner of the BMC and Forest Department following a complaint of coastal regulation violations linked to the renovation.
What’s Next for SRK
On the professional front, Shah Rukh Khan was last seen in Dunki (2023). That year marked his big-screen comeback with three major releases—Pathaan, Jawan, and Dunki. Up next, he will star in King, directed by Siddharth Anand. The film also features his daughter Suhana Khan, making her theatrical debut after The Archies on OTT. Abhishek Bachchan plays the antagonist, while Rani Mukerji and Deepika Padukone will be seen in pivotal roles.
