Rahul Roy, known for his film Aashiqui, suffered a brain stroke while shooting for his film LAC- Live The Battle in Kargil in 2020. He was immediately brought back to Mumbai for further treatment. Now, in a recent interview with an entertainment portal, Rahul's soul sister Priyanka Roy thanked Salman Khan for coming to the actor's aid when he was in need of financial support.

She told, "I want to also say thanks to Salman (Khan) because whatever bill was pending, Salman cleared it in February.” Priyanka shared that the director of LAC also helped him monetarily but that wasn't sufficient. She added, "He (Salman Khan) had called him (Rahul) and asked if he can help with anything and he literally helped and the bill is cleared now."

Praising Salman further, Priyanka said, "The most beautiful thing is Salman did not speak about it in front of the media. This is called really being with a person. This touched my heart. This man is a gem. I mean I didn't ask him, I could have asked. Somebody out of the whole crowd comes and asks in reality if you are actually in trouble and that's the biggest thing. This is called you are a star. Not just being a star in front of the camera."

Rahul added, “Salman ke sath sab log boltein hai woh aisa hai, woh waisa hai, but for me, he is a good person.” Priyanka then shared that she asked her brother to get in touch with the superstar for work as he is fit to get back to acting.
