He might be the biggest star of the country, but Salman Khan is still humble and down to earth. The star has been extremely busy with his upcoming film Sultan, for which he is training extensively as he plays the role of a wrestler in the film. Because of this, Salman was not able to visit an event for which he had given his consent.
The event was the ‘1st International Film Festival for Persons with Disabilities’ (IFFPwD). Salman, sources say, regretted the fact that he couldn’t attend the festival and thus he uploaded a video apologising for the same and asking for forgiveness because he missed the event.
The video starts with him introducing himself. He then goes on to say
“I should have been a part of this festival, but due to my packed shooting schedule for ‘Sultan’, I couldn’t be there physically. But from my heart and soul, I am always up for such causes. To start a film festival especially for differently-abled is a really noble thought.
“Cinema, movies and Entertainment is a big part of the Indian culture and I think everybody should be a part of this culture and why should the differently abled people be left out of this? Many who can see but not hear and some who can hear but not see, they all should go and enjoy and should be provided with the necessary facilities.”
We are sure, the people connected to the event will be glad on receiving the video message from Salman.
The three-day festival, organised by the Department of Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities (DEPwD) under the social justice and empowerment ministry in collaboration with the National Film Development Corporation (NFDC), started with the screening of Marathi film ‘Yellow’ on Tuesday at the Siri Fort auditorium.
It will screen 40 Indian language and international films — 16 short films, 14 documentaries and 10 features (7 fiction and 3 documentary films) before coming to an end on Thursday.
@dangal r u dumb. Biggest star in the world is none other than Shah Rukh Khan. He is also the second richest actor. Salman/aamir are nowhere close to him in popularity.
@Raees fan Tu pkay hai kya? Who told you such joke? Srk and biggest star? What 2nd richest actor? He is just a manipulative prd and media made star. Stop joking. Aamir is the most popular Indian megastar globally and srk is nothing in front of megastar aamir khan’s popularity. Srk will need to take many births to do so. Tiny star srk cab nver be compared to ultimate global megastar AAMIR KHAN. He is the biggest megastar in the world weather you like him or not. That’s itm now get lost you tunchka fan of tunchka star…
