Did Sara Ali Khan Wish HM Amit Shah On His Birthday? Viral Tweet Gets Netizens Talking

Sara Ali Khan wishes Amit Shah? A tweet sent from a verified account marked under actor Sara Ali Khan's name, wishing Home Minister Amit Shah on his birthday, is doing rounds on social media. The timing of the tweet, amid Bollywood facing a massive probe into an alleged drug racket involving multiple celebrity names, has prompted netizens to opine extensively on the story behind it.

"Warmest birthday wishes and regards to the Hon’ble Union Home Minister @AmitShah ji," the viral tweet reads. It appears to come via a verified account with the username @SaraAliKhan. Details on the account show it was created on September 2020 and as of October 22, has a following of over 24000.

The Mumbai drugs bust, involving superstar Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan Khan as a top name, was led by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) earlier this month. Aryan has been in detention since October 3, along with others including models Arbaaz Merchant and Munmun Dhamecha. Follow the case here.

On October 21, actor Ananya Panday was summoned by the NCB after WhatsApp chats allegedly found on Aryan's phone linked her to the case. Reports quoting officials of the anti-drug agency suggest that other star names connected to the case will soon emerge. 

The state of affairs, with the birthday tweet to Shah in view, has sparked a memefest on Twitter with netizens indicating that Khan is attempting to "save" her name from coming up in the drugs case. While many are trolling the Kedarnath actor, several have questioned the authenticity of the verified account.
