Matters involving diplomacy and statecraft are best executed by “our very able leaders”, Shah Rukh Khan’s office said, on Tuesday, dismissing speculation that the star was involved in the release of eight jailed former Indian Navy personnel from Qatar.

Qatar, on Monday, released the Indian Navy veterans who were sentenced to death and whose sentences were commuted to jail terms of varying duration. Seven of them have returned home.

Speculation that Shah Rukh, who enjoys massive popularity in Qatar and recently met the country’s prime minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani in Doha during an event, played a role in the release of the jailed Indians was rife. Former MP Subramanian Swamy’s claimed in a post on X that the actor had intervened in the matter circulated widely on social media platforms.
