In a bizarre yet hilarious incident, a social media influencer attempted to outsmart the security at superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s iconic residence, Mannat, in Mumbai. The prank, now going viral, has left fans in splits with the witty responses of the actor’s guards.
The Sneaky Plan
Influencer Shubham Prajapat began his day outside Mannat, openly declaring his dream to meet King Khan. Unsurprisingly, the strict security didn’t allow him in. That’s when he devised a cheeky plan: he ordered two cold coffees from Zomato—one for himself and one supposedly for Shah Rukh Khan.
When the delivery arrived, Shubham convinced the actual delivery agent to lend him the Zomato bag so he could carry the prank forward. With the bag slung over his shoulder, he confidently approached Mannat’s gate, posing as a delivery boy on an important order for the superstar.
The Backdoor Attempt
At the front gate, the guard denied him access but mischievously directed him towards a so-called “secret back door” used for discreet entries. Excited and hopeful, Shubham rushed to the spot, imagining he might finally get a glimpse of Bollywood royalty.
There too, he repeated his story, claiming he was delivering coffee, possibly sent as a gift. But when asked to call the supposed recipient, he failed to provide proof.
Guard’s Savage Reply
The highlight of the video was the witty guard’s reaction. Bursting into laughter, the guard quipped:
“Ek phone karega toh poora coffee wala nachega uske saamne.”
(“If Shah Rukh himself made a call, the coffee maker would start dancing in front of him!”)
Realising the prank, the guard firmly denied Shubham entry, rightly guessing that someone from the excited crowd outside had placed the coffee order.
Social Media Reaction
The clip has gone viral across Instagram and YouTube, with fans praising both Shubham’s creativity and the guards’ quick wit. While Shubham didn’t succeed in meeting his idol, he certainly won the internet’s attention.
