Actor Aamir Khan has decided to donate Rs 11 lakhs towards supporting the Mumbai Film Festival, which is facing a funds crunch for its forthcoming 16th edition this year.
“Hey guys, the Mumbai Film Festival ‘MIFF’ needs our help. I’m donating 11 lakh. It would be really great if all of you came forward and donated as much as you can to make it happen! Thanks. Love. a,” Aamir posted on his Facebook and Twitter page.
MFF director Srinivasan Narayan is glad that the efforts are finding support from actors of Aamir’s stature.
“We hope all the Khans of Bollywood do the same. We are thankful that Aamir has tweeted about donating the sum and he has also asked others for support. We met his wife Kiran Rao yesterday (Wednesday), but we didn’t know that this (the donation) was coming,” said.
The organisers are yet to receive the donation, but Narayanan said: “The moment he (Aamir) says he’s donating, it’s a commitment.”
Aamir Khan
Great work by Aamir Khan
promotional tactics for ‘P.K’ .. !! enough said.
People will help Canes Films Festival & Toronto Films Festival, not Mumbai Films Festival!!!! Sad!!! Aamir has done a great job by asking others to do so as well.
this what aamir khan. the legend.
Salman and aamir both r real king for people.
other khan is only reel king for people.lol
love u salman and aamir.
Aamir & Salman are very dumb guys.
They donate lot of money but they dont have any marketing sense of donation.
Yes you can make use of donations for your films marketing.
Eg.Uttarakhand rainfall happened in July last year.But one guy with smart marketing strategy waits still mid August when his film hits theaters & then he donates money & that too by saying its from my films collection..!
Thats called marketing techniques.Donate 5crs & earn 25crs by making free publicity.
Its a fake news ! basically no other guy in india have the heart to donate anything besides being@bullies
Come on how can these possible
Grt work sir
They met kiran rao and aamir donated 11 lakh now they should meet gauri khan then our king will donate some huge amount
So what Srk who is the richest actor in the world(check my twitter TL for his net worth), must have donated at least 2-3 crs.
Great working sir to give 11 lakh and earn 11 crore for mumbai to promate his movie pk .best of luck .
SRK should learn something from aamir.
Good gesture by Aamir !!!!!!!!
SRK fans when will you learn that charity even if its just a SMILE is equivalent to spending lacs or crores. Dont make it show off.
When you start judging a man with the wealth he has, you have lost it. No one will carry his wealth to his grave but only good deeds.
A celebrity does charity or social work on his/her personal capacity. Instead of making it an issue of who is donating more, learn from it.
As our king is the second richest actor..so atleast 11crs toh banta hai!!!
His english is not that good…needs a lesson on english. ..so many mistakes…lol
You don’t need to publicize just for people to know you donated, just ask for support and they will for sure know you have made your impact on it, only ShAhrukh has this sense of humor,
Well am so glad he does that coz ammir is also a good and humble Man. A good husband not like one who’s in late 40s and yet to marry. Am nt mentioning oo
Great Job Aamir Sir!!! :)
Good job Aamir sir ur great always
Salman khan….the man with golden heart.
Aamir khan……the man with silver heart.
Teesra khan…..the man with bkri heart.
@bulli, how can sir king srk donate any more, didn’t he already used his entire donation a few months back at filmfare and other similar award functions? lol.
that’s not charity thats publicity stunts….
when they asked to srk, will he donate? srk replied- will u give me award for that?
Great gesture by Aamir….
@bulli @babaji
No need to mock our King guys…. As my friend ‘JC’ has already rightly noted that our king is already tapped out after buying awards at these functions….
Aamir supports film festivals by financing the set up costs- our king supports them by being the only fool willing to buy up their crappy meaningless awards for ludicrous sums of monies…!
Bollywood’s King Khan SRK donated 10 crores to Uttarakhand floods, Salman runs a foundation names being human and has turned it into a brand whereas SRK has donated 18 crore to cancer cell of Aims and has not even preached about it

^read this and shut you mouth up salman and aamir’s fan
@Rahul humiliated by Sunil,
So, you can count charity works by your sarkar. LOL! 2nd richest actor in the world just did some countable charity works. That too calling it the first day collections of his movie in order to gain publicity for it…
Meanwhile Salman has done untold and countless charities in his life. That’s the difference.
if srk ddnt publicity for his charity how can u knows about it. he and his fans are most idiot species in world no wonder.
