New Delhi:
Hrithik Roshan’s love for dancing clearly doesn’t need to be showcased. However, this time the actor helped make someone else’s dream of dancing come true. The actor offered his support to an aspiring ballet dancer to enter the dance school of his dreams – The English National Ballet School of London, England. Hrithik HRX Films donated Rs 3 lakh to a 20 year old student named Kamal Singh. Kamal’s father is an electric rickshaw puller who lives in Vikas Puri in Delhi. Kamal’s teacher, Fernando Guilera, thanked Hrithik Roshan in an Instagram post. He wrote: “IFBC is very proud. Hrithik Roshan has supported my talented student Kamal Singh. Thank you very much for this huge gesture, Mr. Hrithik Roshan, from Kamal’s ballet teacher.”

On the fundraising platform Ketto, here is what Kamal wrote in his biography: “I had never heard of Ballet. My father is a rickshaw driver and I went to the local government boys school. I always liked moving. but I didn’t have the money to go there. dance lessons as a teenager. But fate led me to a chance meeting with maestro Fernando Aguilera, director of a ballet school and a company in New Delhi. I fell in love with this beautiful, rigorous classical form and after four years of intensive training my dream came true: The English National Ballet School in London, England sent me an invitation, offering a place in their one-year vocational training program.
Besides his philanthropic works, Hrithik Roshan has a good reputation for helping and inspiring fans in his own way. The actor, who spoke openly about his stuttering problem earlier this year, backed a Twitter user whose cousin was harassed by one of his professors for stuttering during a presentation at his college . In a strongly worded tweet, Hrithik Roshan called out the professor for his callous behavior and called him a “brainless monkey”.
Please tell your cousin that this teacher and his judgment are irrelevant. Stuttering should never stop him from dreaming BIG! Tell him it is NOT his fault and it is NOT something to be ashamed of. The people who shame him are no better than brainless apes. https://t.co/BDQp9PArag

It’s not that, the actor was also featured in a class 6 values education manual. Hrithik’s story has been listed under a chapter titled “Self-Confidence”. The chapter explained how the actor overcame his stuttering problem. An excerpt from the chapter read: “Overcoming such a mess was a very great victory that helped him regain his confidence.”
I felt bored, so I read a manual from my niece. I was surprised to see this page. This is from the values education manual in class 6. Whoelse can teach self-confidence better than him? @iHrithik Mr. @HrfcTamilnadu@[email protected]/ukwlDkqa0N
