Shah Rukh Khan donates Rs 1 crore to Chennai Relief Fund

Bollywood Superstar Shah Rukh Khan has donated Rs 1 crore to the Chief Minister’s Public Relief fund, days after the city of Chennai came to a standstill due to heavy rains and floods.

In a letter from his production house Red Chillies Entertainment, Shah Rukh wrote:

Dear Madan Chief Minister,

We are all deeply affected by the devastation wreaked on the city of Chennai by the fury of nature. At the same time, the resilience of the people of Chennai and the way in which the community has come together to help each other and face this adversity is commendable and makes us all feel proud.

On behalf of Red Chillies Entertainment and Team Dilwale, please accept our contribution of Rs 1 crore to the Chief Minister’s Public Relief Fund.

We appreciate the massive effort undertaken by your government and everyone in Chennai, to deal with this calamity and we hope our contribution will help in a small way.

With warm personal regards, I remain,

Sincerely yours,

Shah Rukh Khan

  • that’s a nice initiative but Mr srk kindly add 1cr to ur dilwale promotion cost …..
    Mr srk explained “I never go public abt my charity” den why a letter to cm & mentioned dilwale team & ur name at d end?????????

    if ur intention is pure den I salute u but ur action raised my eyebrow …….

  • Srk knows his movie is up for release very soon. And he himself has said in a interview that he is receiving letters by fans telling him to boycott his movies….

    Now he is trying to fool the people by doing this drama…
    After his idiotic statement on “INTOLERANCE” he had to make a good impression to get his lost fans back. And chennai flood incident happened to be the best chance for him to grab. “Mauka dekh maar diya chauka”…..LoL

    He may have donated 1 crore but he knows in return he is gonna make hundred crores more by making fool out of morons like these fanboys. Nothing to lose for him…But smart people wont fall for cheap drama from srk…
    If he thinks us fools then he has to be biggest moron in the world… Its nothing but a showoff from him..A desperate act from a desperate man…ha ha

  • Biggest movie star for a reason..more dn dt a true super human being..bestest..da reason behind all his success..

  • Being Human donates pennies wth a stylish pose infront of camera.
    SRK neither held press meet, nor invited photographers

  • Very very good effort SRK. Jiyo Hazaar Saal..
    You are paying back to Chennai which saved your name and fame.
    Loved it..

    But I wanna ask SRK fans why he is making donations before media? How do media have come to know about his donation? Dont you always accuse Salman of making donations to show off because media publish about some of his donations???

  • It’s a really nice gesture by srk, I am happy that he donate such a big amount to Chennai, whatever the intention he had (publicity or he is showing his good side) doing this,I don’t know and seriously I don’t care, but I am happy that he did this.

    But what I don’t like that some srk fans are comparing the donation amount with the other actor’s amount, like Rajnikanth donate only 10L and SRK donate 1cr. Come on guys it doesn’t matter how much u donate (whether it’s 500 Rs or 1cr), don’t compare it with value or amount because by doing this u r hurting the emotions of the donator.

  • Good gesture by SRK but why is he including Team Dilwale in it?? And where are those who says SRK does not show off charity ?? What is this now ?? Double standards !!!!!!!!!!

  • SRK is not being human like salman, He is already human being there is too much different.

    Matlab saaf.. Jo samjha na samajh ko samjhaye please.. here is a madness fan of SRK from
    thousand of miles away from him. we are blessed to have you Dr.

  • @iamsrKAY
    wil u donate 1000rs to chennai relief fund if dullwaale not releasing tis dec
    srKAY:A BIG “NO”

  • @iamGay, to phirr sabko kaise pata chala ?
    ye bhi ek chaal tha ke pehle din nahi balke teesre din bataun taake kisi ko fake na lagey.

  • Honestly, no words. What has Chennai/Tamil Nadu done for SRK, that he’s giving us 1 crore. What an amazing human.

  • The next tweet for haters to use:

    SRK only donates 1 crore to Chennai and 10 crores to Uttarakhand? Why is he doing concert only for farmers?

    Why did he donate his IPL winning money of 15 crores only to Mumbai and Kolkata Cancer patients? What about other cities and other diseases

    Why does he closely work with ‘Make a wish’ foundation and is on board? What about CRY and PETA ? Why is his focus only on Children?

    What is this “Son of Soil” Concert for farmers in Maharashtra/Vidharba? What about farmers in other state? Such selfish man.

    Why is he the only Indian to win UNESCO’s Pyramide con Marni award for his work towards children? What about other awards?

    Why did he adopt around only 50+ villages in India? What about all the other villages? Why does he look after only 150+ poor families? Why?

    Why did he help only Kashmiri Pandit refugee family who met with an accident? Or the children who were victims of terrorist grenades?

    Selfish SRK used to charge Rs. 5000 per interview from media during 1998 and give it to charity he supports? Why not other NGOs? Cruel.

    He was appointed as the first global ambassador of UNOPS that implements projects like clean water? What about other organizations?

  • @Bk fan: Being labelled as Dilwale promotion? If he would have secretly donated then u wud hav kept criticising he didn’t donate. make some sense instead of behaving like an idiot.

  • @thephenom, We know that Sarook is ridiculously rich. Can’t he just quietly donate a few crs . I’m sure he wouldn’t miss it too much.. aaa. Publicity..hmmmm I see.

  • Just A Short Ques from idiots. If SRK wanted publicity why did he waited for two days? SRK followed his principle by not publicising charity done on 5th december. It was TN CMO that reveals it.

  • Loads of love and respect to team Dilwale.. 1 crore is still a very huge amount these days especially for middle class families.. This amount will help a lot in providing relief.

  • Bhaijaan donates 46 Cr and no publicity but Crapwale donates 1Crore and he is all over… Shame on Sarook… Just promoting Crapwale…

  • SRK has donated crores & crores all his life to various needy and less privileged people from India. & craps dare to ask him his nationality!

  • from last 4-5 days there was continious chanting allu arjun 10 lac n this actor 15 lac bla bla..
    n whr is khans n all..why there is pressure on them for donating too??
    those who bark wat they do themselves in life..???
    any 1 of these hypocrytes nevr donated evn 100 rs..in life..
    finally srk shows he is man with big heart…all things aside but i respect all khans n bollywood wen it comes to charity or social connect.
