Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has yet again done a good deed. King Khan has donated money to a Kashmiti Pandit refugee family, the Rainas.

The Raina family were involved in a fatal accident while travelling from Jammu to Delhi. The eldest member of the Raina family died on the spot, while her son Deepak Raina, daughter-in-law Neenu Raina and their two-year-old daughter were seriously injured. The family is admitted in Delhi’s Apollo Hospital. Neenu is currently in coma, while Deepak is critical and the child has almost lost all senses in the lower half of her body.

Shah Rukh came to know of the family’s plight and immediately offered financial assistance. According to social activist Ashoke Pandit, “Shah Rukh promptly called me up and offered to help in whatever way possible. Within two days, I received a cheque from Gauri Khan (Shah Rukh’s wife) pledging their support to the family.” The actual amount donated by Shah Rukh has not been disclosed.

Ashoke has also revealed that this is not the first time that Shah Rukh has helped out those in need. Pandit says, “A few months ago, I sent him a message to help me with the treatment of a 10-year-old suffering from cancer. The child’s single mother could not afford the medical expenses. Even though Shah Rukh was not in India that time, he immediately volunteered to help. Unfortunately, the child passed away before the treatment. Later, Shah Rukh himself called me to ask about the child. When I told him that the child was no more, he was terribly disheartened that he could do nothing to save the child.”
