Superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan’s arrest, following a raid by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) aboard a cruise ship, has evoked various reactions. While many of SRK’s peers have shown solidarity towards him and the family, people online have been mercilessly trolling the superstar and the Hindi film industry.

The latest to comment on the case, albeit indirectly, is veteran filmmaker Subhash Ghai, who has collaborated with Shah Rukh Khan on films like Pardes and Trimurti. Talking about the ’90s, Ghai posted on the Koo app that the film industry has always stood against drug abuse and it continues to do so even now.

We all still protest against ’Drugs -the Evil,” Subhash Ghai wrote.
