The Aurus restaurant and lounge bar at Juhu is reportedly facing the music for the scuffle between actor Shah Rukh Khan and director Shirish Kunder. The police are seeking to cancel the hotel’s licence, sources said. A spokesperson for the hotel refused to comment saying: “We don’t have any such information.”

On Monday at 4.30am, Khan slapped Kunder, Farah Khan’s husband, for stalking him right through the party. Sources said the party was thrown by businessman Baba Dewan to celebrate the success of actor Sanjay Dutt’s latest flick Agneepath.

The duo reportedly patched up the next day at Khan’s bungalow, Mannat, at Bandra.

The police said the upscale restaurant had violated the deadline time thrice in three years.

Although Kunder did not lodge any complaint with the police, the club is under the police scanner.

The sources in the police said that after the incident was reported in newspapers, police commissioner Arup Patnaik was miffed that the club was opened till 4.30am. The deadline to shut restaurants is 1.30am.

The police patrolling team are required to visit all hotels after 1.30am to check whether they have closed down. Patnaik has sought a report from the local police regarding it.

Deputy commissioner of police (zone 9) PR Dighavkar refused to comment. It was learnt that the restaurant management had told the police that the incident did not occur inside the club and most guests had left by 1.30am.

They said that only  a few customers were inside. However, the police are not buying the explanation, sources added.
