MUMBAI INDIA : Bollywood star Aamir Khan, whose recent release `3 Idiots’ took a critical look at India’s education system, says that he gets inspired by stories of real-life heroes who go beyond their limitations to bring change in one’s life and in society.
“When I see real heroes and listen to their stories, it really inspires me. I think we have, in different degrees, strengths and abilities,” said Aamir presenting an award at the Real Heroes Awards of CNN-IBN and Reliance Industries Limited here on Wednesday.
“When we use our abilities and strengths to better our lives, that’s normal but when you use your strength and abilities to help others, you become a real hero,” he added.
Twenty-four real-life heroes from across six regions in India were shortlisted and their work classified into categories such as Women’s Welfare, Social Welfare, Health and Disability, Youth Education and Children and Sports.
Ace cricketer Sachin Tendulkar was present on the occasion and received a standing ovation before he gave away the award in the Sports category.
“Real heroes are not ordinary people, they are extraordinary people. They haven’t got anything, but they still have the courage to go through all the obstacles, find the solutions and they are selfless. They don`t have any expectations. All they want is to see smiles on the faces of people around. We should get inspired from them,” Tendulkar said.
