Every now and then Shah Rukh Khan will remind us of why he still wears the crown of the King.
At a time when his tumultuous relationship with close friends has been the topic of much debate and public scrutiny, SRK has been quietly taking care of people who really matter to him. One of them happens to be director Anubhav Sinha, who helped him realise one of his long-cherished dreams, RA.One.
The film's fortunes have not in the least bit affected their friendship, which has survived the vagaries of the box office.
Mumbai Mirror has learnt that it was during a recent trip to London that Sinha was pleasantly surprised when SRK dropped in to visit him at Courthouse Hotel in central London.
A source close to the director told Mirror that SRK and Sinha chatted for nearly two hours, before the star left.
However, there was a bigger surprise for Sinha, who prepared to check out of the hotel on Monday at 5 am. Apparently, SRK had cleared his bill amounting to Rs 1.95 lakh. Apparently, SRK, on his way out, had quietly enquired with the hotel management about Sinha's expenses, and over an email that night, settled the dues.
A surprised Sinha checked with the reception several times to ensure there were no mistake. And every time he was given the same answer: SRK had paid for his three-day hotel stay. It then occurred to Sinha that in the course of the conversation he had mentioned that he would be checking out the next day. And maybe that is when the actor decided to gift his friend a little surprise.
"Anubhav called up SRK thanking him for his magnanimous gesture. He was visibly overwhelmed," added the source.
