Known for abandoning the cushy comfort of his luxury sedans for fun packed auto rides, Salman Khan is already a favourite of the Mumbai rickshaw drivers. And now, his latest nobel act, where he handed out a generous sum of Rs 25,000 to a beggar has made him popular with the city’s beggars.
Sallu whose philanthropist side is as famous as his reckless antics, left the crew of his forthcoming flick ‘Wanted’ gobsmacked when he handed out a whooping sum to a beggar on the sets.
Story goes that Sallu was shooting for a song sequence when he saw a beggar. He went up to him and asked him if he was the same person who used to sell kites at Band Stand, Bandra a long time ago. The beggar indeed was.
Apparently, the actor used to buy kites from him as a child. After seeing the beggar for a long time Sallu was much too overwhelmed and decided to show his affection by giving away huge bucks.
Confirming the news a source told a news daily, "Salman gave him Rs. 25,000 and bought him some food and clothes. The beggar was eternally grateful. Salman Khan has grown up at Bandra’s Band Stand. And flying kites on the rocks wasn’t unusual for him”.
But this isn’t the first time the actor has done a good deed. Besides running his NGO, Salman does a lot for slum children, orphans and the handicapped, but he’s the kind of guy who doesn’t like to speak about these things.
