“Shah Rukh came at midnight, he asked where is the dog. They said, sir woh to chale gaye. He said, kaha rakha hai? Humne sea mein unki grave bana di. Two thirty at night he woke up the boys and he said show me where you kept him. He dug the grave, he brought the dog back, put him in the backyard and he’s made some sign there.
