Salman Khan to present Rs 1.2 crore to Olympic Athletes

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, who is India’s goodwill ambassador for the Rio Olympics, will be presenting Indian Olympic athletes with cheques of Rs 1,01,000 each.

Since the country has sent a record 118 athletes to Rio this year, the total amount that Salman would be presenting as a ‘gesture of appreciation’ would be nearly Rs 1.2 crore.

The actor, who was recently seen in a sports-based film ‘Sultan’, said the government is supportive of sports and each one of us should do our bit to encourage sports in the nation.

  • Charity is good thing but people now a days focusing more on show off than sincerity/ humanity, honesty. By the way, good initiative taken by Salman bhai. Hope SRK shall maintain his own rule to keep secret about charities done by him.

  • This is India’s biggest criminal bhabijaan’s new tactics to fool people and to show gratitude to escape from all court cases.this scoundrel is a 3rd class born cheater.this most wanted criminal should be changed till death for his all criminal cases and epic sins combined.

    My question to this criminal,if you can spend 100cr for your court cases,then why you’re only spending so less 1ce for these great players?if you have such big heart than at least give 3-4 crores to each.tere jaisa bheekari nahi hain yeh log.

  • Today I am prouder to be a Salman Khan fan.
    I just he remains healthy and happy!
    About his films, we will take care of them.
    #JaiHo Sab Athletes Ki!

  • Even now, some haters will come up and spit out venom against this noble effort of his.
    Even a great and noble man like M Gandhi had enemies and was assassinated.

  • Let’s encourage and build a sport nation India.
    Also admit that other sports are equally important as to cricket. Being too mad for Cricket has hindered from developing other forms of international sports in India.

  • Jacqueline Fernández confirmed pairing with sushant singh rajput in salman khan produced action flick!!!! Bhai supporting SSR…..he’s terrific actor…

  • Whether our Bhaijaan does his charities with sincerity or for show off, the needy people get the help in the time of critical needs.

    His charities inspire others to do the same. Some envy of his charities and end up doing charities by themselves. That’s what matters.

    Even Bhaijaan said ‘I just don’t care if others think I do charity with sincerity or for show off. What matter are the needy people get help and my efforts inspire others to do the same.’

  • Megastar Salman Khan Rules….

    This is a nice gesture to motivate morally & financially…. Everybody should contribute with this gesture…..

    #saluteMegastar

  • Very good Salman nice work , king of Bollywood . Akki also donate 70 lakh to to Indian army . Both akki & salman in good form both always do the charity .

  • @REAL Shahrukh Fan, that’s a pathetic comment from you. What was so bad in Rangil’s comment?

    Athletes didn’t get medals because of Salman??? Height of absurdity!

    Salman did his best. The players did their best. But the luck or something was not in their favor. So they didn’t win it.

    At least, appreciate Salman’s good effort to give heroic welcomes to the athletes (returning without any medals) and uplift them morally.
    Nobody will do anything to Salman if he doesn’t do such an event.

    Par kuch log are destined to be nuts for their whole lives. You are one of them!

  • @REAL Shagrukh Fan, But your king does lobby international organizations to get recognition awards for charity although he does charity secretly.
    For instance, one crore rupees for Chennai floods victims from the team of #HNY! What! #HNY! Again, #HNY!

    And Amitji ka toh pata nahin but your king has never the most loved star in India. Period!
