Shahrukh to open cancer care centre

16th May 2011

Bollywood's King Khan is under the spotlight most of the time. Be it his larger-than-life films or be it his so-called clash with the other 'Khans' in the industry. Only Salman is known for his acts of charity but Shahrukh too is contributing towards society in his own way. Shahrukh, not an active name in the social and charity circuit, has been doing his bit, that too by keeping it under wraps.

Not many know that Shahrukh secretly funds a child care department for the needy and he now plans to open up free medical care for the cancer patients who cannot afford the expenses themselves. Shahrukh is keen on starting this as soon as possible and his inclination towards this is due to his own troubled past. Shahrukh would be initiating this care unit in the memory of his parents, Fatima and Taj Mohammed. His father succumbed to cancer when he was young. Hence he doesn't want people to die of this deadly disease, just because they don't have the funds for the treatment.

The plan is in its initial stage and will be implemented in the near future. It's great to unravel the generous side of King Khan who's better known for his promotional and marketing skills.
