Why Shah Rukh Khan Was Absent From Close Friend Baba Siddique's Funeral? Reports Say 'He Didn't Want..'
Shah Rukh Khan, known for his close relationship with Baba Siddique, was notably absent from Siddique’s funeral after his shocking murder.
Shah Rukh Khan, known for his close relationship with Baba Siddique, was notably absent from Siddique’s funeral after his shocking murder, which garnered national attention due to his strong ties with Bollywood celebrities.
Baba Siddique was a close friend of stars like Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, and Sanjay Dutt. While several notable figures, including Salman, Sanjay, Shilpa Shetty, Raj Kundra, Pooja Bhatt, Zaher Iqbal, and Maniesh Paul, attended the funeral at his home, Shah Rukh Khan did not make an appearance.
Why SRK did not attend Baba Siddique's funeral
According to a report from Times Now, Shah Rukh Khan's decision to skip the funeral was influenced by his desire to avoid involvement in politics or the murder case. A source mentioned to the news portal, "Shah Rukh Khan doesn’t want to get associated with the politician’s murder case. The case is also related to Salman Khan, and King Khan, for that matter, wishes to stay away from this! Knowing how Lawrence Bishnoi’s circuit works, Shah Rukh Khan doesn’t want any harm on him anymore. Hence, he has chosen 'disappearance' in the entire matter by skipping Baba Siddique’s funeral who was a close friend to him."

Baba Siddique's friendship with SRK
Baba Siddique had played a crucial role in reconciling the longstanding feud between Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan. The two Bollywood giants, once close friends, had a bitter fallout and avoided each other for nearly five years. Though the exact cause of their feud remains unclear, it was widely known that if one actor attended an event, the other would steer clear of it. Siddique’s intervention eventually helped repair their friendship.
The long-standing rift between Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan finally ended in 2013 at Baba Siddique’s renowned Iftar party, where the two superstars publicly embraced and reconciled. This moment, which Bollywood fans had only dreamed of, became iconic and is remembered as a significant event in the film industry.
