Farzana Cama Balpande, Head of BookASmile initiative, said, "Sultan is a story about
true sportsman spirit and an attitude that teaches you to never give up in life. We
instantly felt that a movie like this will be an enriching experience for the children. To
make this screening unforgettable, we requested Salman Khan to surprise the kids, to which
he graciously agreed. The children were absolutely thrilled to meet him and this made
their day even more memorable."



"At BookASmile, we work towards enriching the lives of the less fortunate across India
through the medium of experiences and enjoyment. We believe that alternate education, in
form of sports, culture, music, art, movies, is as important and helps in developing
well-rounded personalities," added Farzana.



The screening was organized at PVR Juhu (Mumbai) for students from K.K. Raj Popat
School by collaborating with Raichel Joseph Foundation. The event also had children from
Spark A Change Foundation and Angel Xpress.
