Shah Rukh Khan garnered praise on Reddit for his considerate gesture toward an ISRO scientist. The actor, during a recent event, ensured that the scientist, Palanivel Veeramuthuvel, who served as the project director of the Chandrayaan-3 mission, was not left in the background during group photos with ISRO scientists. Many applauded Shah Rukh Khan for his thoughtful approach to making the shy ISRO scientist feel included in the pictures taken at the CNN-News18 Indian Of The Year 2023 event.

This humble act of Shah Rukh Khan went unnoticed yesterday. An ISRO Scientist was offering his place to him during the group photograph and going to stand somewhere else as he was too nervous in front of him, but SRK pulled him back to stand alongside him.
