Talking to News Nation, Shatrughan Sinha if Aryan Khan’s case made him feel concerned in any way as a parent, he said, “It would be a matter of concern for any parent. The way Aryan was treated, the manner in which negative stories were spun about him… We all feel vindicated today for having supported him, now that he’s been proven to be innocent. As a parent, I felt Shah Rukh Khan’s pain. Even if he was guilty, instead of rehabilitating him, (they locked him up)…”
“I should also say that, as expected, I didn’t receive a thank you card from Shah Rukh, even though I was maybe the most prominent voice standing up for Aryan in all of Mumbai. But I have a habit of calling a spade a spade, and for standing up for what is right. I stood up against what I believed was an injustice. As far as Shah Rukh is concerned, I didn’t receive any thanks or a thank you card from him,” he added.
Although Shah Rukh Khan didn’t reach out to the veteran actor, but Shatrughan Sinha feels happy that his lawyer Satish Maneshinde spoke with him. Further in the interview, when Sinha was asked if he tried to speak with SRK, to this, the actor said, “No, absolutely not. Why would I, I don’t need work from him. I don’t need to get in touch with him, in fact, he should have gotten in touch with me. But, to be fair to him, he didn’t ask me for support either.”
