Shah Rukh Khan's Ancestral Peshawar Home Resurfaces, Rekindles Pre-Partition Memories

  • Visuals of Shah Rukh Khan's ancestral home in Peshawar, Pakistan, have resurfaced online, sparking conversations about pre-Partition history.
  • Located in the historic Qissa Khwani Bazaar, the house is where SRK's father, Meer Taj Mohammad Khan, was born before the family migrated to India post-1947 Partition.
  • The modest, time-worn house reflects old Peshawar's architectural character with wooden doors, aging balconies, and an inner courtyard.
  • SRK has an emotional connection to Peshawar through his family's history, though he was born in New Delhi.
  • The house highlights the broader legacy of Partition, with many such structures quietly carrying personal and historical narratives.
