MUMBAI: Superstar Shah Rukh Khan arrived at the Mumbai airport, looking healthy and without any visible surgery markers, on Wednesday morning, a day after reports that he had sustained an injury in Los Angeles sparked worries and a torrent of social media posts.
There were reports on Tuesday that the "Pathaan" star had received a minor nose injury and now was back home in Mumbai following surgery.

A PTI video this morning showed the 57-year-old actor, dressed in a blue hoodie, black cap, matching trousers and sporting yellow shades, waving at shutterbugs stationed at the exit gate before quickly leaving for home in his car.
Videos and photographs of the airport spotting quickly went viral on social media with many fans posting their wishes for the actor.
