Bollywood megastar Shah Rukh Khan sparked online chaos after being spotted “spitting” at the open casket of legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar, who passed away at the age of 92.
Eyewitnesses report that SRK slightly pulled down his pandemic-era chin diaper before what appeared to be a subtle projectile of piety over the body—sending social media’s unemployed watchdogs into DEFCON 1
.
Islamic scholars were quick to jump into the fray, clarifying that the light spitting is actually part of a religious dua (prayer), believed to banish evil spirits, demons, and djinns from possessing the deceased or hijacking their souls on the way to the afterlife.
“This isn’t spitting. This is spectral pest control,” said one Islamic theologian. “It’s ancient soul-cleansing technology.”

Encouraged by the ancient ritual’s potential, SRK is now reportedly preparing to spit on the face of his son Aryan Khan, whose public run-ins with narcotics and substance abuse have made headlines in recent years.
“If it can banish djinns from the dead, maybe it can evict the party demons too,” said a family insider.
Scholars warn, however, that Algol, the demon djinn of drugs and alcohol, may require a triple spit combo and at least two surahs to be fully expelled.
