After grappling with a heatstroke, Bollywood luminary Shah Rukh Khan has been discharged from a private hospital in Ahmedabad, confirmed a police official.
Ahmedabad (Rural) Superintendent of Police Om Prakash Jat stated, "Khan has been released from the hospital this evening. He departed for the airport directly from the medical facility."
The acclaimed actor was admitted to the multi-speciality K D Hospital on Wednesday. However, the hospital authorities are yet to release an official statement regarding Khan's health status.
Khan's visit to Ahmedabad was to attend an Indian Premier League (IPL) match of his franchise Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Narendra Modi Stadium, which took place on Tuesday.

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) report stated that the city of Ahmedabad recorded a "heatwave" both on Tuesday and Wednesday when the temperatures rose to 45.2 and 45.9 degree Celsius, respectively.
