Shah Rukh Khan and Family Visit Mumbai Shrine During Ganeshotsav Celebrations

The visit was notable for the absence of Shah Rukh Khan’s sons, Aryan Khan and AbRam Khan, who were not seen at the pandal.
The upcoming film King will reunite Shah Rukh Khan with director Siddharth Anand, following their work together on Pathaan, and will mark Khan’s return to theatrical screens after Dunki.

King is scheduled for a theatrical release on December 24, positioning it as a major year-end release.
Shah Rukh Khan is regularly associated with Ganesh celebrations at home as well; he reportedly welcomes Lord Ganesha at his Mumbai residence, Mannat, every year and shares glimpses with fans.
Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan visited Mumbai's famous Lalbaugcha Raja pandal with his wife Gauri Khan and daughter Suhana Khan during Ganeshotsav celebrations.

Shah Rukh's visit notably excluded his sons, Aryan Khan and AbRam Khan, who were absent from the pandal. IANSLive reported the family was accompanied by Shah Rukh's manager Pooja Dadlani during the Ganpati darshan.
