Earlier it was reported that Aryan Khan was feeling anxious in the jail after his last bail plea got rejected. Seeing his mental state, the jail authorities suggested him to read books from the library and Aryan was reading a book on Ram and Sita. Reports said before this book he was reading The Lion's Gate.

During his stay in the jail, Aryan Khan was not given any VIP treatment and was treated like any other prisoner, reports said. Shah Rukh Khan was allowed to visit Aryan Khan in person on October 14, when the prison authorities started allowing physical visits of family members of the prisoners. Before that, Aryan Khan was allowed a video call with his parents from the jail premises and a money order to buy food from the jail canteen.

Aryan Khan's conduct has been well inside the jail, it has been reported. During a counselling session, Aryan reportedly told Sameer Wankhede that he will work for social and financial upliftment of the poor and the downtrodden and will never do anything that will bring him "publicity for the wrong reasons". He also promised Wankhede that he will make Wankhede proud one day.
