Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan has mastered the art of staying in touch with his fans.
Recently, the actor won the internet by reaching out to a fan with cerebral palsy. Amrit, a fan of the actor, has been tweeting to the actor regularly for over 100 days, requesting Shah Rukh Khan to meet his brother who suffers from cerebral palsy.
His first tweet was on July 20, 2018. "Day 1 : @iamsrk Love from my elder brother Raju who has Cerebral Palsy. He is a huge fan and wants to meet you. I'm going to tweet everyday from today until you agree to meet him :-) #RajuMeetsShahrukh," he had tweeted that day. Since then, Amrit, whose Twitter bio reads 'On a mission to help my brother meet his idol Shah Rukh Khan', has been tweeting to get the attention of the actor.
