Shah Rukh Khan's manager, Pooja Dadlani, swiftly responded to claims made by Subramanian Swamy that the actor intervened in securing the release of Indian naval officers from Qatar. Denying any involvement of the superstar in the matter, Pooja Dadlani issued a statement, asserting that Shah Rukh Khan played no role and, like millions of Indians, was pleased to learn of the officers' return. The statement comes amid speculations fueled by Swamy's post suggesting that PM Narendra Modi sought Shah Rukh Khan's assistance in persuading the Qatari government.

Despite varying fan opinions on the prompt clarification, Dadlani's statement reinforces that Shah Rukh Khan had no hand in the release of the naval officers. The actor was recently in Doha as a special guest for the AFC finals, where he met with Mohammad Al Thani, the PM of Qatar.
