SRK Paris doodle is fake, it was drawn by a fan, and not by Shahrukh

We know Salman Khan can paint, but Shah Rukh Khan? Don’t think so…

A Paris doodle-cum-drawing reportedly drawn by Shah Rukh Khan is doing the rounds in the media, and there’s rumours that the doodle has been sold for ₹2 lakhs.

However a source close to SRK Rukh has now clarified, “SRK has not drawn that doodle. We have no clue how and from where this doodle suddenly popped up. It just has his signature and from what we know, it was drawn by a fan who asked Shah Rukh to autograph it and he obliged. It’s not his creation.”
