In his own capacity, Bollywood actor Salman Khan paid a visit to the Sabarmati ashram while in Ahmedabad to promote his film Antim: The Final Truth. Following the ashram visit, a promotional event was held in an Ahmedabad multiplex.
Khan arrived at the ashram about midday and went on a tour of the Hriday Kunj, which was Mahatma Gandhi and Kasturba Gandhi's home till 1930, and even tried out the charkha. "He could surprise weave out a thread, which is otherwise difficult for individuals trying out a charkha for the first time," an ashram administrator disclosed. Khan received a charkha replica as well.
