Why has Shah Rukh Khan's wife Gauri Khan rented another Rs 1.35 lakh flat? Details inside
It is not a hidden fact that Shah Rukh Khan and his family are not living in their iconic Mumbai abode, Mannat, now. This was after their residence went under renovation earlier this year. The residence was also home to several staff members who took care of the Khan family. And now, the latest reports suggest that Gauri Khan has rented a flat for her staff members in Mumbai's Khar area. As per reports derived from by News 18, it is said that Gauri has rented a flat for Rs 1.35 lakh in Pankaj society for her staff members. This society is located in one of Mumbai's well-known residential spots and is just 100 metres away from another duplex apartment she had rented right after Mannat went under renovation. The reports further reveal that the rented flat is on the 4th floor of the building and it is around 725 sq ft. It has been rented from Sanjay Kishor Ramani, and apart from the rent, a security deposit of Rs 4.05 lakh is also paid. Reportedly, this agreement is for 3 years and promises a 5 per cent rent hike every year. Earlier, there were reports that Shah Rukh Khan's wife has rented two duplexes in Khar's Pali Hill for Rs 8.67 crore. This is also for 3 years. The renovation work had landed the Khan family in trouble somewhere around March. According to a report by Bar & Bench on Monday, activist Santosh Daundkar had filed a plea with the National Green Tribunal (NGT), claiming that Shah Rukh Khan and the Maharashtra Coastal Zone Management Authority (MCZMA) did not secure the necessary Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) clearance for the renovation of Mannat. Given that the bungalow is classified as a Grade III heritage structure, any modifications require official approval. The report also stated that Khan intended to add two additional floors to his six-storey bungalow. It also alleges that he converted twelve 1-BHK flats, originally designated for mass housing, into a single-family residence. Talking about his work front, Shah Rukh Khan is all geared up to shoot for King, which will also star his daughter Suhana Khan and Deepika Padukone.

Muslim man allowed to have multiple wives if he can treat them equally: Allahabad HC
Representative photo (Generative AI) NEW DELHI: The Allahabad high court recently ruled that a Muslim man is entitled to marry more than once, provided he treats all his wives equally. A single bench of Justice Arun Kumar Singh Deswal made the observation while hearing a petition related to charges against a man named Furkan in Moradabad. The court noted that polygamy is permitted under the Quran 'for a valid reason' but is often 'misused' by men for 'selfish reasons,' a report by Bar & Bench website said. 'This Court would further like to observe that Article 25 of the Constitution of India gives religious freedom to profess, practice and propagate, which also includes external overt acts of individual as per his religious faith, but this right is subject to public order, morality and health and other provisions of Part-III of the Constitution. Therefore, religious liberty under Article 25 is not unfettered and can be regulated by the State,' the judgment said, as per the Bar & Bench report. The bench explained that polygamy was allowed historically to protect widows and orphans in the early Islamic community. 'There was a time in history when a large number of women were widowed, and children were orphaned in primitive tribal tussles in Arabs. The Muslims suffered heavy casualties in defending the nascent Islamic community in Medina. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 2025 Top Trending local enterprise accounting software [Click Here] Esseps Learn More Undo It was under such circumstances that the Quran allowed conditional polygamy to protect orphans and their mothers from exploitation,' it said. The case relates to a 2020 complaint by a woman who accused Furkan of marrying her without disclosing he had another wife. She also alleged rape during the marriage. Police issued summons to Furkan and two others. The case began after a woman said Furkan did not tell her he was already married when they wed. Furkan's lawyer argued that Muslim law allows a man to marry up to four wives. The court ruled that the charges of bigamy and rape did not apply, as the marriage was valid. It said the matter needed further examination and issued a notice to the complainant. Meanwhile, the police were ordered not to take any coercive action against Furkan or the other accused. Furkan was represented by advocates Alok Kumar Pandey, Prashant Kumar, and Susheel Kumar Pandey.
