A video is going viral on social media, with the claim that it is a picture of Aryan Khan urinating at the airport. Aryan Khan was in the news recently after he was arrested by the NCB in the drugs case. Similar claims are being made viral through WhatsApp and also from Twitter. We also did the postmortem of this viral claim. We will tell you what is the truth, but before that let’s know what is the viral claim.

The viral message along with this video on WhatsApp says, “This is the rich father’s Junkie son, for whom, media created such hue and cry as if there was an emergency in the country when he was in jail for just a few days. Now see how he is defaming the country by taking drugs. This video is from America 2 years ago, where he urinated at the airport while he was drunk. Then the police beat him up, wow! America makes the father naked and the son himself gets naked.”

Along with this, it is also being said in the viral message to share this video further, so that the truth can be known. Similarly, a tweet read, “Just now this video has been sent by a friend, it is being said that the young man seen in the video is Shahrukh’s son Aryan Khan, and this act has happened at an airport in America. Please let me know if you get more information about this.” A Twitter handle named ‘hunlogindia’ also shared the video.

 

When we found this video on a search engine using ‘reverse image search’, we found a page on reddit, where people were discussing about this video. In the video posted 3 years ago, it was written that a man urinated after drinking alcohol at the airport. Some people wrote that he would not be able to control due to intoxication, then some wrote that it is not a crime to be jailed. Some wrote that he was not conscious due to intoxication.

After reading this discussion, we got the news of February 22, 2013, which shows its truth. Actually the person seen in the video is not Aryan Khan, but Bronson Pelletier, who worked in 4 films of ‘The Twilight Saga’ series in 2009-12. The age of this Canadian actor is 35 years. This incident of December 2012 is also written on his Wikipedia page. He was then sent on probation for 2 years. He did not say anything in court against the charges against him.

Thus, the person seen in this viral video is not Shahrukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan, but Canadian actor Bronson Pelletier. This video is 9 years old and now it is going viral again with the wrong claim.
