June 22, 2025: Bollywood’s beloved superstar Shah Rukh Khan recently surprised fans during a casual Sunday drive, offering a rare glimpse of his softer side—alongside his pet dog—and sparking a social media buzz.
Shortly after being captured enjoying a quiet moment in a luxurious Rolls-Royce, SRK was seen peeking out of the car window with his furry companion nestled on his lap. Dressed down in a white tee, beanie, and sunglasses, he quickly rolled up the window and made a discreet exit, accompanied by a dedicated security convoy. The clip, shared widely online, melted many hearts and showed SRK off his typically grand event persona.
Why He’s on the Move: Temporary Pali Hill Stay Amid Mannat Renovation
Amid the flurry, it wasn’t just SRK’s cuddle date that made headlines. Earlier this year, Shah Rukh, his wife Gauri, and their children—Suhana, Aryan, and AbRam—moved into two adjacent duplexes in Pali Hill’s Puja Casa, leased from the Bhagnani family, at around ₹24 lakh per month.
This move comes as Mannat, the Khans’ iconic sea-facing bungalow, undergoes a major ₹25 crore renovation, adding extra floors and modern updates. Gauri Khan, acclaimed interior designer, has said the makeover—dubbed “Mannat 2.0”—should wrap up within a year.
What’s Next? On‑screen & Off
The film front is just as vibrant. Following hits like Pathaan and Dunki, Shah Rukh is now set to headline King, directed by Siddharth Anand. His daughter, Suhana Khan, stars alongside him, while Abhishek Bachchan takes the antagonist’s role. Produced by Red Chillies Entertainment and Marflix, it marks SRK’s return to big-screen action.
