Shah Rukh Khan gives update on shoulder injury during ‘Ba***ds of Bollywood' trailer launch with witty joke
Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan shared an update on the shoulder injury on the sets of 'King' with a witty joke during the trailer launch of son Aryan Khan's directorial debut with a new Netflix show, Ba***ds of Bollywood, on Wednesday. King Khan, who recently won the National Award for best actor for his role in 2023's Jawan, assured fans that he will recover soon after his surgery and won't face any problems in picking up the award. 'National award uthane ke liye mera ek hi haath kaafi hai,' the actor joked as he shared that he had suffered an injury on my shoulder, and underwent a surgery for it. 'Now it will take one or two months to recover,' he said. 'Actually, I'm able to do most of the things with one hand -- eat food, brush my teeth and scratch the back of my head. But I face difficulty in one thing -- in taking all of your love (aap sab ka pyaar batorne ke liye),' he added, referring to his signature arms spread wide pose. Shah Rukh's right hand was in a sling at the event where he introduced the cast of Aryan's show. Known for his witty comebacks, the 59-year-old actor also didn't shy away from joking about his son's directorial project. 'When Aryan told me that he is going to do a show about Bollywood which will be raw, edgy and with a bit of madness, then I wondered -- is he going to upload the CCTV footage from Mannat on YouTube?' he laughed. Shah Rukh then praised the newcomer for creating something fresh and unique. 'I will be honest that it took me a while to really catch on. And when I caught on, I was really drawn in. I'm really happy about it. And not only about the show, but the entire cast that has come together to tell this story because it is the characters that breathe life into a story and create magic on screen,' he added. The Ba***ds of Bollywood will premiere on the streaming platform on September 18. The show, described as a genre-defying series that blends self-awareness with cheeky humour, stars Bobby Deol, Lakshya, Sahher Bambba, Manoj Pahwa, Mona Singh, Manish Chaudhari, Raghav Juyal, Anya Singh, Vijayant Kohli, and Gautami Kapoor. Bilal Siddiqi and Manav Chauhan co-created the series. Aryan co-wrote the show with Siddiqi and Chauhan. Gauri Khan produced the series under the banner Red Chillies Entertainments Pvt. Ltd.

On Wednesday, SRK took the stage for the preview launch of The Ba***ds of Bollywood and spoke about his injury. 'I injured my shoulder and had a little surgery. It wasn't that small to be honest; it was a bit big. So it will take me a month or two to recover. Lekin National Award uthane ke liye mera ek haath hi kaafi hain (But to pick up the National Award, one hand is enough for me),' he said, which opened to thunderous applause. SRK sustained the injury while shooting for his upcoming movie King. He also shared that his injury might take two months to heal properly.

There is only one thing that I miss when I can't use both my hands: embracing the love of all of you.' Charisma level: King Khan. Wit level: unbeatable. One hand enough to lift a National Award, one presence enough to own the stage. 👑🔥@iamsrk @RedChilliesEnt @NetflixIndia @BilalS158#ShahRukhKhan #SRK #AryanKhan #Netflix #TheBadsOfBollywood #TheBadsOfBollywoodOnNetflix — Shah Rukh Khan Universe Fan Club (@SRKUniverse) August 20, 2025 Recalling when Aryan approached him, expressing the desire to create a show on Bollywood that would be 'raw, edgy and a bit mad', Shah Rukh jokingly wondered, 'Is he putting Mannat's CCTV footage on YouTube?'

Rapper Vedan Gets Relief From Arrest In Rape Case, Kerala High Court Announces Decision
Published By : Chirag Sehgal IANS Last Updated: According to the FIR lodged in Kochi last month, the complainant alleged that she was sexually exploited by Vedan between 2021 and 2023. For the second day in succession, the Kerala High Court on Wednesday granted interim relief to Malayalam rapper Hirandas Murali, popularly known as Vedan, directing that he should not be arrested until his anticipatory bail plea in a rape case is fully heard and disposed of. On Wednesday, the court after hearing the complainant's arguments, posted the case for more hearing to August 25. To this, the counsel for Vedan said the court should give directions that he should not be arrested till his plea is finally disposed and it was granted. Vedan, who has been accused of alleged sexual assault by a woman doctor, has been absconding since the case surfaced. The Kerala Police had earlier issued a lookout notice fearing he might attempt to leave the country. According to the FIR lodged in Kochi last month, the complainant alleged that she was sexually exploited by Vedan between 2021 and 2023. Their relationship began while she was a medical student, and she claims that on at least five occasions in Kozhikode, Kochi, and other locations, he sexually assaulted her under the pretext of marriage. The complaint also mentions that they briefly lived together. She further alleged financial exploitation, stating that in 2021, when Vedan was preparing to release his debut album, she gave him Rs 15,000 on two occasions and another Rs 8,300 to fund his train travel. Their acquaintance reportedly began over social media, but in 2023, Vedan allegedly broke off the relationship, leading to distress and prompting her to file the complaint. Two other women have also since accused the rapper of misbehaviour. When the woman doctor's counsel brought to the attention of the court on Wednesday that there are more women who have filed similar cases against him, the court said cases cannot be clubbed and each case is independent of the other. Vedan, 25, rose to fame under the banner Voice of the Voiceless. He debuted in 2020 and, within the same year, gained recognition as a lyricist in hit films like 'Nayattu', 'Karam', and 'Manjummel Boys'. His socially conscious rap style earned him a large following across Kerala. This is not his first brush with controversy. In April, Vedan was arrested along with eight others following a narcotics raid at his rented apartment near here, though he was later released on bail. Around the same time, forest officials briefly detained him after discovering a tiger's tooth on his necklace. Despite his rising popularity, the present allegations have cast a shadow over the young rapper's career, with the court's next decision on his bail plea eagerly awaited.
