Mumbai: King of Bollywood Shahrukh Khan is not only a reel life hero but also a real life hero. At an event in Mumbai, he saved Ghajini actress Asin when she and her spokesperson got surrounded by over 300 people who tried to shake her hand and touch her.

At a function, a makeshift cubicle was made near the backstage where the stars were asked to wait before they came on the stage.

As Asin was about to enter the cubicle, 300 people surrounded her. Reportedly, the crowd got too close to her as they tried to shake her hand and touch her.

Immediately, Shah Rukh – who was to go on stage next – intervened and ordered his bodyguards to go through the crowd and reach Asin. The buzz is that Shah Rukh with his six bodyguards, who are trained in crowd management, reached Asin and pulled her and her spokesperson out of the crowd.

Sources close to Asin confirmed the incident, saying it was a “scary experience for the actress”. After the incident, Shah Rukh and Asin had a long chat about her security.

The superstar is believed to have advised her on her security and told her to keep bodyguards while going out for such public appearances.
