Shah Rukh Khan recalls Nana Patekar helping him get bail after arrest
Shah Rukh Khan has recalled how actor Nana Patekar helped him get bail after he was jailed in the early 1990s.
The incident began after a magazine linked Khan romantically with a co-star, upsetting his newly married wife, Gauri Khan.
Khan went to confront the journalist, carrying a kukri given to him by his father-in-law.
He later said he threatened people at the journalist’s home and regretted how he behaved.
Police arrested him while he was filming Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa, and he could not get bail that evening.
Khan said Patekar came to his aid and helped him get out of jail.
Khan shared the story at a 2012 event, and it has resurfaced after Patekar’s death.
