Controversy-ridden actor and Bigg Boss contestant Ajaz Khan stunned everyone with what he had to say about his experience in Arthur Road Jail, Mumbai. According to him, he saved the son of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, Aryan Khan, from the mafia during his stay there and even gifted him cigarettes.
Ajaz Khan, arrested in a 2021 drug case, spoke of his jail experience and the individuals he met there. In a conversation with Hindi Rush, he stated “Shah Rukh Khan’s son, Aryan Khan, was in the jail at that time. I helped him too and sent him water and cigarettes. This is all you can do for someone in jail. And yes, I also saved him from gundas and the mafia. He was in danger; he was placed in the common barrack.”
Aryan Khan was arrested in October 2021 in a high-profile drug case but was subsequently released as no concrete evidence was found against him.
Ajaz Khan Remembers Assisting Raj Kundra in Prison
Ajaz also talked about businessman Raj Kundra, who was imprisoned in an alleged pornography case. He said that Kundra used to ask for his assistance daily while being incarcerated in Arthur Road Jail.
Azaz Khan said that, “Raj Kundra used to send me messages every day. He was under a strict surveillance. I had been in jail for seven months when Raj Kundra came. He didn’t help me, but I helped him a lot. Be it a biscuit, a bisleri bottle or a cigarette, its a big deal to provide these things in a jail. He would ask me for water, bread and biscuit. Normal water was allowed, not bisleri, but he wouldn’t drink it as he would fall sick.”
Raj Kundra ‘Forgot’ ajaz’s Help, Claims Actor
Ajaz also complained that Raj Kundra never even appreciated the assistance he provided him in prison. He was saddened that he had been excluded from Kundra’s biopic movie, UT69.
“His movie (UT69) flopped because he showed lies. He said his story, but he didn’t show things that he went through and humanity is going through. Neither did he show the hero who helped him in jail. I gave him water, bread, butter despite strict orders from superintendent of the jail. He never repaid my favours. He cut my role in his film. He never showed what all I did for him.”
Ajaz also alleged that Raj Kundra never spoke about him even in private interactions with his wife, actress Shilpa Shetty.
“The two months he spent with me is something he must have not even shared with his wife Shilpa Shetty. It was Corona time, there was a lot of sadness. He used to cry the whole time. I went against people to save him in jail. Yet, he never remembers me or invites me to his huge parties. He has forgotten his jail time.”
Stunning Revelations of Ajaz Khan Ruffle Controversy
Ajaz Khan’s allegations have raised controversy on the internet, with most people doubting the validity of his claims. Shah Rukh Khan and Aryan Khan have not made any comments on Ajaz’s allegations, nor has Raj Kundra. Whether or not these allegations are valid, they have brought back the topic of the experiences of high-profile individuals in Indian prisons into the limelight.
