Congress leader urges Shah Rukh Khan to visit former 'mentor'

Congress leader Szarita Laitphlang took to X (formerly Twitter) to urge Shah Rukh Khan to visit his former teacher, brother Eric D'Souza, as she informed the actor about his deteriorating health.

Asking Shah Rukh to visit his mentor in Goa, the Congress leader said in a video that Eric's condition was 'really deteriorating'. She called Eric Shah Rukh's 'mentor' in another tweet.

"Kindly spare a few minutes to come and visit him. Mumbai is not very far from Goa. It is just an hour's flight... his health is really deteriorating, and he can't speak anymore," she said in the clip. Szarita tweeted alongside the video, "This feels like my final plea, my last attempt to reach out to @iamsrk to humbly request his presence by the side of brother Eric S D'Souza."

She added, “Each day, brother's health weakens, his condition worsening with every passing moment. Mumbai, just an hour away by flight, holds the possibility of bringing solace to his ailing heart. DASU has left an indelible mark on all of our lives, shaping us into who we are today through his unwavering commitment to instilling values. Your visit would mean the world to him, a beacon of hope in his darkest hours.”
