Sanam Teri Kasam director Radhika Rao and Vinay Sapru recently shared a heartwarming incident involving Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, reports UNB.
The duo, who debuted as directors with Lucky: No Time for Love, recalled an act of generosity by Salman during the film’s shoot in Russia.
Speaking to MK Talks, Vinay Sapru recounted how Salman’s kindness left a 65-year-old crew member in tears.
The woman, responsible for handling Salman’s costume continuity, was a Russian national and had developed a motherly bond with the actor. Despite being a major star, Salman would always laugh off her scolding on set.
“One day, she arrived on set crying, and when we asked why, she showed us an envelope Salman had left for her,” Radhika and Vinay revealed. The woman expressed that the amount was enough to support her for at least three to four years. Overwhelmed by the gesture, she couldn't even thank Salman personally, as he had already left Russia after completing the shoot.
The directors disclosed that Salman had gifted her over $10,000, a gesture that deeply moved the entire crew. The story has since gained attention online, with Reddit users praising Salman’s generosity. One user commented, “Respect him for wanting to help others. This is special,” while another wrote, “That’s extremely sweet of him.”
Salman’s upcoming movie
Salman is currently gearing up for the release of his upcoming movie Sikandar. Helmed by AR Murugadoss, the action drama also stars Rashmika Mandanna, Kajal Aggarwal, Sathyaraj, Sharman Joshi, and Prateik Babbar in key roles. The film is set for a festive release on Eid this year.
