The news of Baba Siddique’s tragic death has left the nation in shock. Siddique, a former Maharashtra minister and senior leader of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP), was gunned down on Dussehra evening outside his son Zeeshan’s office. The shocking murder, linked to the infamous Lawrence Bishnoi gang, has raised concerns about the safety of high-profile individuals in the country.
The funeral of Baba Siddique was held at Mumbai’s Bada Qabrastan, with full state honors. Bollywood’s glitterati paid their respects, with stars like Salman Khan, Shilpa Shetty, and Sanjay Dutt attending the emotional ceremony.
However, one notable absence raised many eyebrows: Shah Rukh Khan, a close friend of Siddique, did not attend. This led to speculation and confusion, as people wondered why the King Khan chose to stay away from the funeral.
According to reports, Shah Rukh Khan opted to avoid attending the funeral to steer clear of potential political controversy. Siddique’s murder is believed to be linked to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, which has previously issued threats to both Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan.
A source close to the actor revealed: “Shah Rukh Khan did not want to get caught in any discussions surrounding the murder or politics. Given the gang’s history of targeting high-profile personalities, he chose to prioritize his safety by staying away.”
Baba Siddique was not just a politician, but a key figure in Bollywood history, known for mending relationships, most notably the fractured bond between Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan.
The two actors had been estranged for nearly five years, avoiding public appearances together and refraining from speaking to each other. That all changed at Siddique’s Iftar party in 2013, when the two stars shared a heartfelt hug, officially ending their feud. It was a moment that became one of Bollywood’s most iconic scenes, symbolizing reconciliation and friendship.
While the city mourns Baba Siddique’s loss, many are also reflecting on the dark side of his murder—its connections to gang violence and the dangers facing those in the limelight. With high-profile figures like Salman and Shah Rukh under threat, the tragic incident has raised serious questions about the safety of public personalities in today’s world.
As Bollywood and political figures come to terms with the loss, the legacy of Baba Siddique and his pivotal role in reconciliation will be remembered fondly by many.
