Foundation
Meer Foundation was started back in 2013
SRK's Meer Foundation was started back in 2013. According to the website, the organization "works on multiple fronts with different stakeholders to build a world that empowers women and brings society together." In the past, the foundation has contributed to sponsoring surgeries for acid-attack victims, and donated wheelchairs to Para-athletes. It also donated a sum of Rs. 21 lakh for the Kerala Flood Relief.

Separately, SRK will soon appear on David Letterman's show
Work-wise, Shah Rukh was last seen in Aanand L. Rai's Zero, also starring Anushka Sharma and Katrina Kaif. Unfortunately, the film turned out to be a complete debacle. Moving on, the superstar is set to appear on the American talk show My Next Guest Needs No Introduction with David Letterman. And we're already excited! Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there!
