Shah Rukh Khan Skips Baba Siddique's Funeral Gets Trolled On Social Media

October 15, 2024: Baba Siddique, a close friend of Bollywood stars Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, and Sanjay Dutt, was recently laid to rest. While Salman, Sanjay, Shilpa Shetty, Raj Kundra, Pooja Bhatt, Zaher Iqbal, and Maniesh Paul attended the funeral to pay their respects, Shah Rukh Khan was noticeably absent.

According to a report by Times Now, Shah Rukh Khan chose not to attend the funeral to avoid any involvement in the ongoing political situation and the murder case surrounding Baba Siddique. A source close to the actor revealed, “Shah Rukh Khan doesn’t want to be associated with the politician’s murder case, which also has connections to Salman Khan. Knowing how Lawrence Bishnoi’s gang operates, Shah Rukh is being cautious about his safety and has distanced himself from the situation by skipping the funeral, despite his close friendship with Siddique.”
