The soft side of Salman Khan came to the fore again when he fulfilled the dream of conjoined twins recently in Mumbai.
Salman, who has been painted by the media almost as a villain, does have a soft side and we have been carrying stories to highlight Salman’s charity bid for children.
Another instance came to the fore when the 10-year-old conjoined twins, Saba and Farah Shakeel, met their dream hero Salman in Mumbai.
"The girls had expressed their desire to meet Salman, saying they were fond of him and so they came to the house and met him", Salman's father Salim Khan said.
"Salman took them to watch a film shooting and the twins enjoyed it immensely", he added.
The twins, who do not go to school but are taught at home because they don't like to be stared at, love watching Hindi films, playing the board game of carrom and putting henna on their hands.
In July 2003, a Singapore hospital conducted an unprecedented operation to separate 29-year-old Iranian conjoined twins, Ladn and Laleh Bijani, who were joined at the head. The sisters, both law graduates, were separated but died 90 minutes apart, from massive blood loss.
Conjoined twins occur roughly once in every 50,000 births.
