When Salman Khan rescued Shourya

Shourya Chaunhan, who was last seen in Vikram Bhatt’s Mumbai Salsa, looks up to Salman Khan.

“He has done something for me which I cannot thank him enough for. It was four years ago, when I was on my way to Mumbai from Hyderabad, when I happened to spot Salman at the Hyderabad airport. I went upto him and asked for an autograph and he willingly obliged. When I was waiting for my flight in the lobby, and checked my handbag, I realised to my horror that I had forgotten my wallet at home. I was really upset and started crying. Salman noticed this. He came upto me and asked me if there was any trouble. When I told him my problem, he told me not to worry and quietly pulled out Rs 2,000 from his pocket and handed them over to me. When I refused, he said ‘Come on! whenever you meet me next, return it to me. Now just relax!’ I was really touched! 

Since then, I never got an opportunity to meet him but now since I am doing films, I would like to meet him and return him the money.”
