SRK's philanthropic work

If you must do philanthropy, then do it like Shah Rukh Khan. The Bollywood Badshah recently helped out debutant filmmaker Shailja Gupta by silently funding the entire post-production of her film Walkaway that apparently ran into crores.

BT has learned that the director was in dire straits without any money to fund her post-shooting work. Having done a project with Shah Rukh when he was in the US, Shailja decided to ask him for help. What she didn't expect was SRK would invite her to Mumbai and open the doors of his home production office for free so that she could finish her movie. Shailja stayed in the city for a couple of months, worked inside SRK's office with full support from the actor's team. She is now creating waves in America with her debut movie that is set to show at all major film festivals.

"I thought my film would never see the light of the day," said Shailja. "I had no clue how to go about making a film and the budget naturally went out of control. I was devastated thinking that all my hard work was ruined. But then SRK gave me a helping hand." An official from SRK's side confirmed this development but the actor, who has never ever spoken about his philanthropic work, remained silent.
