Mumbai: Aryan Khan, son of Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan, approached the Bombay High Court on Friday, seeking modification of a condition imposed on him when he got bail in the drugs-on-cruise case.
Aryan Khan moved the court seeking relaxation in the condition that he shall appear before the Narcotics Control Bureau's (NCB) south Mumbai office every Friday to mark his presence.
As the probe has been transferred to a Special Investigation Team (SIT) of Delhi Narcotics Control Bureau, the condition that he should appear at the Mumbai office could be relaxed, said the application.

The plea also said that Aryan has to be accompanied by policemen every time he visits the Narcotics Control Bureau office due to large number of mediapersons waiting outside.
The application is likely to be heard by the high court next week, his lawyers said.
Aryan Khan was arrested by Narcotics Control Bureau on October 3 on charges of alleged possession, consumption and sale/purchase of drugs following a raid on a cruise ship off the Mumbai coast. However, he was granted bail on October 28.
The high court imposed 14 conditions on him during bail. Among other things, Aryan was asked to appear before the Narcotics Control Bureau office each Friday, not to leave Mumbai without informing the agency and not to leave the country without permission from the special NDPS court.
