Shah Rukh Khan protects Asin at event

This is one incident that Asin Thottumkal won't forget in a hurry. At a recent event she was surrounded by around 300 people who had got too close for comfort. However, it was none other than Shah Rukh Khan who came to her rescue. Had Shah Rukh not intervened in the nick of time, this would perhaps have been Asin's worst experience in Mumbai.

An actor who was present there said, "The organisers had made a make-shift cubicle near the backstage where the stars were ushered in before they were supposed to go on stage. Asin was about to enter the cubicle when the incident occurred."

She suddenly found herself surrounded by 300 people. She had only her spokesperson for company. Even as the duo was screaming for help, the crowd got within touching distance. Asin panicked when some over-enthusiastic fans tried to touch her on the pretext of shaking her hand. That was when Shah Rukh, who was supposed to go on stage next, intervened.

"He immediately ordered his bodyguards to cut through the crowd and reach Asin. Before the crowd could realise what was happening, Shah Rukh with his six bodyguards reached where Asin was standing. He grabbed her hand with his right hand and with his left, he caught hold of Asin's spokesperson and dragged them outside the melee," the actor added.

Shah Rukh's bodyguards have been trained in crowd management and they immediately formed a ring around Asin and Shah Rukh.

"Shah Rukh and Asin had a long chat after the incident. He advised her on her security and also told her to keep two bodyguards for public appearances," the actor added. Though Asin didn't deny the incident, she didn't want to comment on it further.
