Ever since the incident happened, the Smith family has maintained a low profile. Almost a month later, Will Smith was spotted in Mumbai's Kalina airport.  The 53-year-old actor was papped in Mumbai with a spiritual guru. The actor sported a simple white tee along with a spiritual thread wrapped around his neck for his visit to the country.
