Sameer - (Thumbs up emoticon)SRK - Please show some kindness my man. Love SRK. I can only plead and beg you as a father. Please.

Sameer Wankhede: Dear Sharukh I wish I could talk to you as friend and explain you about the current situation and not as a zonal director, all the murk and unscrupulous elements are vitiating the entire atmosphere I wanted to look toward the kids in an reformatory approach and provide an opportunity for best living a national service. But unfortunately my attempt is being maligned by some dirty persons with malafide and vested interests.

SRK: But my son is not part of that please. You also know that. You know his part is minuscule in it. All he needs is reformation and for that he has had his quota and I will also follow suit with what we talked in terms of making him a better person. Please man I beg you there is nothing from my side that is participant in the vested interests. I went out if my way and without even knowing them called and begged them not to involve my child in their politics. The people here and also the person in the North. I spoke as a father to them and even chided them that they are harming my kid in their selfish interests. Please man don't make him pay for these assholes and vested people. I beg you man please. It's a larger thing my son and my family I swear play no part in it. I have even refrained from talking to anyone and even told all these foolish people not to speak on my behalf. When we speak I will tell you what I have done in my capacity not to hurt your drive to be upright. I swear man. Please I beg you.Get your guys to go slow for Gods sake. I swear I will stand by you for all times to come and assist you with what all you are trying to achieve good. It's a man's promise and you know me enough to know I am good for it. I beg you please have mercy in me and my family. We are a simple set of people and my son has been a bit wayward but he doesn't deserve being in a jail like a hardened criminal. You also know that. Please have a heart man please I beg you

SRK - Please call me and I will talk to you in my capacity as a father. Not any other way and you can hear from me that I mean every word I have said. You are a gentleman and a good husband and I am the same. I have to try and help my family wishing the bounds of law. I beg you man please don't let him be in that jail. These holidays will come and he will break as a human being.

His spirit will be destroyed because of some vested people. You promised you will reform my child not put him in a place where he may come out completely battered and broken. And it's no fault of his. As a good man why would you subject him to this for some selfish people doing what they are doing. I promise you I will go to them and beg them to not say another word in front of you. Will use everything my power to make sure they listen and retract whatever they have said. I promise you I will do all of it and won't shirk away from begging them to stop. But please send my son home. You also know in your heart it's been a bit too harsh for him by now. Please please I beg you as a father.

Sameer - Sharukh I know you as a fine human being. Let's hope for the best.

Take care of yourself.

SRK - Please tell them to go easy man and let me get my son home. Please. There is nothing more I can say or do but beg you. PleaseYou have noticed my behaviour through all this. You know I would never stand by anything against what you are doing. I believed it when you said you are thinking of Aryan as your own and want to make him a better person. I haven't done anything to not help my son get that reformation. I haven't been in press. I haven't made a statement. I have just believed in your goodness. Please please don't let me down as a father. Please.

SRK - Would you speak with daughter please

SRK - I will make her call you just now. I promise you I will follow this on my own and get this person dealt with in the way he deserves. I promise just please be kind today. Bless you man Please don't break our heart today my man. Please It's a father to father request I love my children just like you do yours and exterior forces cannot be allowed to cloud a father to father feeling please.I am a kind and gentle person Sameer please don't let my faith break in you and the system. Please it will shatter us as a family.Thank you for trying to help. Extremely grateful forever. Love srk

Sameeer Wankhede - Dear Shahrukh, it pains my heart too by recent developments. No one is happy and from our side no one deliberately wants to put Aryan in trouble dear trust me on that. There are certain technicalities in the law. I have also assured you that will not allow any rubbish person to spoil his case though they are trying a lot. I know where you are coming from emotionally. I would only want to tell you one thing here my dear, just have patience. This is going to be over soon.

SRK - Insha Allah. But I honestly feel you made the best effort in your official capacity and I do so too as a father. But sometimes our best is not good enough. Patience is paramount....thank you. Love srk

Take a look at the screenshots of the chats that have surfaced on social media.

As per a report in FPJ online, Narcotics Control Bureau Deputy Director General Gyaneshwar Singh and Wankhede's Whatsapp chats have also been leaked.

Wankhede said, "By using movie stars as brand ambassadors. That is why so many movie stars are part of his trade. They organize rave parties in outskirts of cities and resorts. They hold few blokes who bring in their friends as they get free drugs and then they bring movie actors or actress to bring in more publicity and then hundreds of new customers are created because you can become addict even with 1 single episode. Since sex is more important to create addicts they add MDMA and few girls into the mix to make it more attractive. Free sex hours of it and enhanced performance using drugs. what more does a man need?"

In the Whatsapp chats with Gyaneshwar Singh, Sameer Wankhede also talked about how celebrities like Aryan Khan are roped in, and named as brand ambassadors to sell rave party tickets to youth so that the drug mafia can expand their clientele of drugs and sex pills.
