Shah Rukh Khan felicitated with an honorary doctorate from The University of Law

Bollywood’s King Khan Shah Rukh Khan is one of the most celebrated stars across the world. The ‘Swades’ actor was recently awarded an honorary doctorate in Philanthropy by the University of Law in London. The actor was lauded for the charity work that his Meer foundation does. Shah Rukh took to the micro-blogging site Twitter and thanked the University.

Shah was bestowed with the doctorate in a graduation ceremony for more than 350 students. Interestingly, the actor already has honorary doctorates from The University of Bedfordshire and The University of Edinburgh. This is the second time that he has received a doctorate from The University of Law.

Sharing a picture of him from the graduation ceremony, SRK thanked the university and gave his best wishes to the graduating students.

Shah Rukh said in a statement, “I believe that charity should be done in silence and with dignity. One cannot speak about their charitable acts because it loses its purpose. I have been privileged to be able to use my status as a public personality to champion causes close to my heart.” 

SRK went on to add that he firmly believes in giving back to the world which has given him so much. The actor’s Meer Foundation works with acid attack victims and aims to initiate change at ground level and to empower women.
