Viral Shah Rukh Khan Hansraj College ID Card Faces Authenticity Questions

A photo of an identity card purportedly belonging to Shah Rukh Khan from Hansraj College, Delhi University, has gone viral on social media. The card lists details consistent with Khan's known academic background, including his BA Honours Economics course and the 1985-88 session, with the roll number 555, a number associated with him. However, doubts about the card's authenticity have arisen due to discrepancies in the principal's name and signature, which do not align with the college's records for that period. The college has not officially verified the card.
