Despite the fame and with the immense hard work, Shah Rukh has proved that he is not only silver screen’s heartthrob but a hero in real life too!

From helping out cancer patients to acid attack victims, this silent charity maker has reached out his hand to people from all walks of life. But Shah Rukh Khan doesn’t like discussing about the charity and good deeds that he does. Revealing the reason, Shah Rukh had once stated in an interview with CNN, “I’ve seen the worst. My father was dying and we couldn’t afford the expensive injections. My aunt used to send them from London. But if the course was of 20 injections, we managed only eight. So I’ll never know whether he died because we didn’t have the money or he died because he had to. I don’t like talking about it [charity].”
