Shah Rukh Khan makes a quiet appearance at Ambani Ganpati celebration, skips paparazzi

Before Shah Rukh Khan rose to stardom in Bollywood, he visited Ajmer Sharif Dargah with his ailing mother to seek blessings and offer prayers. During the visit, the actor lost Rs 5,000 and later received an astonishing prediction from a fakir. Recalling the incident during 2014 promotions of Happy New Year, Shah Rukh mentioned that his mother had given him Rs 5,000 to safeguard while they carried a chadar to the shrine.

However, he ultimately lost the money, prompting him to seek it out. A fakir at the dargah approached him, questioning if he had lost something. When Shah Rukh confirmed the loss, the fakir inquired if it was the Rs 5,000. The man then told Shah Rukh that he had indeed come to the shrine and would not leave empty-handed. He revealed that the actor had lost Rs 5,000 but would one day earn Rs 500 crore.

Though Shah Rukh wasn't always a believer in such predictions, he believed that the fakir's words came true, attributing his success to the blessings of Ajmer Sharif. The shrine, dedicated to Sufi saint Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti, attracts people from various faiths seeking prayers and blessings. Shah Rukh has visited the shrine multiple times, even prior to some of his film releases.
