Aamir Khan met Prime Minister Narendra Modi to discuss social issues raised in the last season of his show Satyamev Jayate
While we wondered where has Aamir Khan been after the end of last season of his show Satyamev Jayate, the actor was planning his future course of action to take forward the issues that he raised in the show. Some of them were rape, child sexual abuse and alcoholism. The actor was here to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi to discuss the social issues he raised in his show. He tweeted his picture with Modi and wrote on Twitter, “Just came out of my meeting with Honorable Prime Minister of India Shree Narendra Modiji. Was very kind of him to spare his valuable time. Shared with him the overwhelming support that we got from people across the country through Vote for Change Campaign...on SMJ, on the various issues that we tackled in our show. He has assured me that he will look into all the matters (sic).” The meeting was held at the South Block here.
The actor also attended the event of Star Parivaar Awards, held in Mumbai over the weekend, and shared that he has been working on other plans that he discussed in the show. With regards to this, he mentioned that he launched India’s first One Stop Crisis Center, which aims at protection for women, in Bhopal. “One Stop Crisis Centre, which is a collaboration of many organisations, will be opened in every district of Madhya Pradesh. It is an important first step towards protection for women. It’s a beginning to a long term solution and I am glad that we have received support for this from across the country. I also discussed it with women and child development minister Maneka Gandhi and we will are working to bring up One Stop Crisis Centers in other states, too. We still have a long way to go,” he said. The actor is working on the third season of the show. The actor who has gained some extra pounds after his last movie, Dhoom 3, is now also trying to get back in shape.
