Bollywood actor Salman Khan's co-star from action-movie Veergati is trying to reach out to the actor for financial assistance.
Pooja Dadwal, who acted with the actor in the 1995 movie, is reportedly suffering from tuberculosis and she has no money to take care of herself. She attempted to contact the superstar, however Dadwal has not yet succeeded in establishing contact with Khan.
Speaking to Bombay Times, Pooja said, “I learned 6 months ago that I had something as serious as TB. I tried to contact Salman Khan for help, but nothing has been done so far. If he looks at my video then maybe he will try to offer some help. I have been admitted to this hospital for the last 15 days. I have been doing casino management in Goa for the last several years."
She also said she depends on others for her day-to-day expenses. "I have no money at all, I depend on others for even a cup of tea,” said the former actress.
Dadwal has been admitted to Mumbai’s Shivdi hospital since 15 days. Her husband and in-laws reportedly abandoned her when they came to know about her illness.
She has also acted in movies such as Hindustan and Sindoor Saugandh.
Khan is actively involved in charitable activities through his organisation, Being Human, which works for the underprivileged in the education and healthcare sectors.
Khan's Being Human Foundation has funded the cataract surgeries for more than 1,400 people and conducted free eye camps and women’s health camps across India.
In collaboration with Fortis Hospitals, the organisation has provided free treatment to over 1,300 children with congenital heart defects and to 130 children with severe facial deformities.
