New Delhi: Sharukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan was granted bail by the Bombay High Court on Thursday, almost 25 days after he was sent behind bars in Mumbai cruise ship drug case.

“Bombay High Court has granted bail to Aryan Khan, Arbaz Merchant, Munmun Dhamecha after hearing the arguments for three days. The detailed order will be given tomorrow. Hopefully, they all will come out of the jail by tomorrow or Saturday,” said AGI Mukul Rohatgi, who represented Aryan Khan.
Aryan Khan was represented by Mukul Rohatgi, the former Attorney General of India (AGI). Along with him, Satish Maneshinde and senior counsel Amit Desai were also present during the hearing.
Several Bollywood celebrities have taken to Twitter to express their happiness over the bail granted to Aryan. Starting from Sonu Sood to Swara Bhaskar, everybody has congratulated Aryan and expressed their warm wishes in his regards.
Sonu Sood took to the micro-blogging site and stated, “समय जब न्याय करता है, तब गवाहों की जरूरत नहीं होती। (When time judges, then there is no need for witnesses.)”
