Bollywood’s ‘King Khan’, Shah Rukh Khan, has once again captured social media’s attention, this time not for a film announcement but for a viral family vacation in London. However, the leisurely images have sparked a broader conversation online, with many netizens questioning the actor’s continued silence on the ongoing CJP-led student protests in India.

Netizens React to SRK’s Holiday Videos
While fans were initially thrilled to see candid moments of the Khan family enjoying their time off, the viral images quickly stirred a wave of discussion, with many social media users questioning Shah Rukh Khan’s decision to remain silent on the significant CJP-led student protests unfolding across India.
These protests are primarily centred around alleged irregularities, including a paper leak, in the NEET examination. Celebrities such as Salman Khan, Alia Bhatt, and Kareena Kapoor Khan have already voiced their support for the students, making Shah Rukh Khan’s silence a prominent point of online debate.
One social media user commented, “Loved SRK A LOT but he is spineless. Unfollowed,” reflecting the sentiment of some who expect public figures to address national issues. Others, however, defended the actor, with one user noting, “He had spine…he didn’t mind speaking. But stuff with his son rattled him…he hasn’t been same since that day,” referring to past personal challenges.
