Attempt made to tarnish reputation of Shah Rukh Khan and his son, says Tovino on Aryan Khan case; similar incidents took place in Kerala as well, says Aashiq Abu

Actor Tovino Thomas said that he felt that there was some political intention behind the drug case against Aryan Khan. The actor said this while responding to a question in an interview as part of the promotion of his latest film 'Naradan'. The Narcotics Control Bureau (NBD) had recently found that there was no evidence to connect Aryan Khan, son of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, with international drug conspiracy.

"I think there was some political intention behind the case. Their intention was to tarnish the reputation of Shah Rukh Khan and his son," Tovino said. The actor also said that the tendency to use the media to blackmail someone was wrong.

Director Aashiq Abu and actress Anna Ben also participated in the interview. Aashiq Abu agreed with Tovino's statement. "Several similar incidents have happened in Kerala. But when the truth finally comes out, they (the media) don't even care about giving a correction or saying at least a sorry," Aashiq said.

"I think that was their purpose, that was the intention I think, from whatever we know now, there was a political intension to tarnish @iamsrk's reputation, his son's reputation, it looks like that...": @ttovino on #AryanKhan case#TalkingFilms pic.twitter.com/pAPfiIn7zQ
