This is the third story of the Wankhede series.

iMessage chats with Shahrukh Khan

In a series of screenshots accessed by NewsTapOne.com, bollywood actor Shahrukh Khan is seen requesting Wankhede not to trouble Aryan Khan.

Shahrukh Khan texts Sameer Wankhede asking him to show some kindness on Aryan Khan, to which Wankhede has replied stating “Dear Sharukh I wish I could talk to you as friend and explain you about the current situation and not as a zonal director, all the murk and unscrupulous elements are vitiating the entire atmosphere. I wanted to look toward the kids in an reformatory approach and provide an opportunity for best living and national service. But unfortunately my attempt is being maligned by some dirty persons with malafide and vested interests.“

Replying to this, Shahrukh Khan wrote back a long text. He wrote, “But my son is not part of that please. You also know that. You know his part is minuscule in it. All he needs is reformation and for that he has had his quota and I will also follow suit with what we talked in terms of making him a better person. Please man I beg you there is nothing from my side that is participant in the vested interests. I went out of my way and without even knowing them called and begged them not to involve my child in their politics. The people here and also in north. I spoke as a father to them and even chided them that they are harming my kid in their selfish interests. Please man don’t make him pay for these a******s and vested people. I beg you man please. It’s a larger thing my son and my family I swear play no part in it. I have even refrained from talking to anyone and even told all these foolish people not to speak on my behalf. When we speak I will tell you what I have done in my capacity not to hurt your drive to be upright. I swear man. Please I beg you. Get your guys to go slow for……..”

The above conversation took place on 13th October 2021.

In another instance, Shahrukh Khan wrote in a text to Sameer Wankhede seeking call: “Sameer sahib may I speak with you for a minute please. Regards shah rukh khan. I know this is officially inappropriate and may be outright wrong but once as a father if I can speak with you please. Love srk“. This was sent to Wankhede at about 10:37AM on 3rd October 2021.

Sameer Wankhede replied to this message at 5:34PM on the same day, asking Shahrukh Khan to call back.

After the call, a text is sent by Shahrukh Khan the next day, “Can’t thank you enough for all the thoughts and personal insights you gave to me about my own. I will make sure that he turns out to be someone that you and I are both proud of of. This incident will prove to be a turning point in his life I promise, in a good way. This country needs honest and young people to take it forward.”

In another instance on 14th October 2021, Shahrukh Khan asks, “Would you speak with my daughter please”,”I will make her call you just now”,”I promise you I will follow this on my own and get this person dealt with in the way he deserves. I promise just please be kind today. Bless you man”,”Please don’t break our heart today my man. Please”,”Its a father to father request I love my children just like you do yours and exterior forces cannot be allowed to cloud a father to father feeling please.”,”I am a kind and gentle person Sameer please don’t let my faith break in you and the system. Please it will shatter us as a family.”

After a few hours, Shahrukh Khan again texts Wankhede,“Thank you for trying to help. Extremely grateful forever. Love srk”.

After a few hours, Sameer Wankhede replies,”Dear Shahrukh, it pains my heart too by recent developments. No one is happy and from our side no one deliberately wants to put Aryan in trouble dear trust me on that. There are certain technicalities in the law. I have also assured you that will not allow any rubbish person to spoil his case though they are trying a lot. I know where you are coming from emotionally. I would only want to tell you one thing here my dear, just have patience. This is going to be over soon.“

Shahrukh Khan replies: “Insha Allah. But I honestly feel you made the best effort in yoir official capacity and I did so too as a father. But sometimes our best is not good enough. Patience is paramount…..thank you. Love srk”

These are a few excerpts from what Sameer Wankhede’s chat with Shah Rukh Khan has submitted to the Bombay High Court.
