Snake found at Shahrukh Khan's residence in Mumbai, rescued

A non-venomous snake was discovered on the grounds of Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan's residence in Mumbai on Monday evening. The snake, a Dhaman or Indian rat snake, was found coiled up under a staircase in the courtyard of the Mannat bungalow, a property owned by Khan. A snake rescuer named Vicky Dubey was alerted to the presence of two snakes in the area around 8 pm.

Upon arrival, Dubey informed the Forest Department and the Mumbai Range Office about the non-venomous snake. The rescuer safely captured the snake and released it back into its natural habitat, ensuring that no one panicked about the encounter. Meanwhile, a separate incident involving a snake was reported from Salman Khan's Galaxy Apartment in Mumbai earlier this year.

In that case, a snake wrangler expertly captured a snake found beneath the apartment and handed it over to authorities for further handling.
