A Pakistani fan of Bollywood superstar Salman Khan is marking the actor’s 51st birthday by buying a Dubai vehicle number plate bearing the actor's birth date: 27/12.
Aly Malik, a Dubai-based Pakistani expat, vowed to gift the number plate under the 'S' series, which he bought for AED 11,400 (approximately Rs 2,10,000) to his favourite star, reported Khaleej Time.
Malik not only wants to gift the number plate to the ‘Sultan’ star but also wants him to sell it further to raise money for Dubai Cares and Being Human, Khan's charity organisation.
“Salman’s Being Human is what inspires me. In fact, I still remember when I heard about the brand and its cause for the first time. I went to the store and purchased Being Human t-shirts in bulk. I also wish that he autographs those t-shirts for me so I can sell them and raise money for charity,” Malik said.
“I was in modelling before becoming an entrepreneur. When I was a model, I used to give all my income to my mother who used to donate it to the needy people. So I was always into charity. As soon as the R series number plate came into existence, I was sure that the S series number plate with four digits will be out soon. Since then I was constantly following up with the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) for this particular number plate,” he added.
