¡®Want To Meet SRK Before I Die¡¯: Actor¡¯s Fan Who Is A Cancer Patient & It¡¯s Too Emotional
Shah Rukh Khan's 60-year-old cancer-ailing fan wants to meet the actor as her last wish. Shivani Chakraborty is hopeful.
¡®Har Pal Yaha Ji Bhar Jiyun, Jo Hai Sama, Kal Ho Naa Ho¡¯
When Shah Rukh Khan sang this on-screen, we climbed the mountain of relatability. The realisation of the fact that life is short and we shall live every bit of it is too harsh but it¡¯s the reality. One of the actor¡¯s fans is currently counting her days and hopes to meet King Khan before she onboards her journey to heaven.

A 60-year-old woman named Shivani Chakraborty is suffering from terminal cancer for years now.
Even though life has been majorly harsh on her fate, Shivani¡¯s love for cinema and Shah Rukh Khan always took over all negativity. Throughout her life, this resident of Khardah, North 24 Parganas remained a die-hard fan of SRK and watched all his films including the recently released Pathaan.
Shivani despite being under treatment doesn¡¯t miss to reach theatres and take a large screen glimpse of her idol. In her room, she has pictures of SRK¡¯s movies ever since the 2000s hanging all around. Chakraborty also revealed that she started liking cricket as well since SRK launched his team KKR in the IPL.

Shivani told Aaj Tak, ¡°I am counting days as doctors have said I will not live long. There is one wish, call it my last wish. It is to meet Shahrukh Khan before I die. I want to see him in person.¡±

The ailing fan wishes to cook a simple Bengali meal for the superstar.
¡°I will cook for him something that we eat at our home every day. He loves Bengal so he might enjoy the homely meal I hope to cook for him,¡± Shivani shared while wiping a picture of the actor with her saree¡¯s anchal. She added, ¡°I want to ask him to bless my daughter. I want to see him and understand how such a star is so grounded.¡±

Shivani faces difficulty in walking as she is also suffering from a spinal cord issue that has led to a deformed back. She underwent as many as ten chemo sessions during her treatment. Her weeping daughter Priya told the portal, ¡°My mother is gradually losing her vision due to the terminal ailment, I hope her wish is fulfilled.¡±
This story reminds us of another cancer-diagnosed fan of SRK, Aruna PK who unfortunately scummed to death in 2017.

For her SRK not only recorded a video message but also made a phone call to her when she was under treatment in the hospital making Aruna smile through her oxygen mask. Along with Shivani, we are too hopeful that her last wish comes true and this amplifies enough to reach the superstar.
