Similarly, her remark about him being with his “own valentine” simply meant he was working. Dismissing the negativity, he reassured that the couple is still together and that “no divorce is going to happen.”

Shah Rukh Khan and his family are set to temporarily move from their iconic sea-facing residence, Mannat, to a luxury apartment in Pali Hill, Bandra, as extensive renovation and expansion work begins on their Grade III heritage home.

During this period, the Khans will relocate to four floors in the luxury residential complex Puja Casa, owned by producer Vashu Bhagnani’s children, Jackky Bhagnani and Deepshikha Deshmukh. According to Hindustan Times, Shah Rukh’s production house, Red Chillies Entertainment, has signed a leave and license agreement for the space, which has been chosen with security and staff accommodations in mind. The reported monthly rent for the property is Rs 24 lakh.
