Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan Khan assured NCB officials during counselling that he would work for the welfare of the poor and never do anything that would besmirch his name in the future, an official said.

Aryan (23) is currently lodged in Arthur Road prison here after he was arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau following an alleged drug seizure from a cruise ship off the Mumbai coast on October 2. During counselling by officials including NCB's zonal director Sameer Wankhede and social workers, Aryan said after his release, he will work for "social and financial uplift of the poor and downtrodden" and never do anything which could bring him publicity for the wrong reasons, said an agency official.
