FACT CHECK
To start the investigation, we took a screenshot of this viral picture and searched it on Google reverse image. We found this picture on a blog called http://bollywoodstarsphotos.blogspot.com. But in this picture, Shahrukh Khan wore a plain white t-shirt. Nothing was written on it. The caption written along with the photo was: “Shahrukh Khan’s Latest Stylish Pictures in a Cool Dude Style having a Spice Hair cut and wearing a white T-shirt. This picture was taken when SRK came to met Akshay on the sets of his upcoming film ‘Blue’. ”
When we searched these keywords on Google, we also found this photograph on glamsham.com website.
Let us tell you that Akshay Kumar’s film Blue released on October 16, 2009. It is obvious that these pictures are old.
We talked to Shahrukh Khan’s company Red Chilli’s PR manager, who said, “This picture is fake, it has been photoshopped”.
