On Thursday, Shah Rukh Khan visited his son Aryan Khan for the first time since his arrest. The actor was clicked arriving at Mumbai's Arthur Road Jail. SRK had been keeping away from the cameras since Aryan was arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) in a Mumbai cruise drug bust case. According to a report in India Today, SRK got close to 18 minutes with Aryan and the father-son duo interacted through an intercom in the presence of jail authorities.
The report further added that Aryan was emotional during the meeting. On Wednesday, a special NDPS court rejected his bail and two others in connection with the drugs case. Soon after that, Aryan's legal team quickly moved to the Bombay High Court.
Bombay High Court is scheduled to hear Aryan's bail plea on October 26. According to a report in Times of India, Aryan's lawyer Satish Maneshinde requested for a hearing on Friday or Monday but ASG Anil Singh for NCB stated that they had not been served the copy yet. Furthermore, the court refused Satish's request for a hearing via video conferencing and Aryan's bail plea matter was listed for hearing on Tuesday.

You are saying there is a "possible" connection to his "international" racket based on "WhatsApp" chat recovered from his phone, that you confiscated on a "bust" where he "had nothing"? And you have been fishing for days and yet not found anything? #FreeAryanKhan."
