A post shared by Rahul Roy (@officialrahulroy)

The actor suffered a brain stroke in the year 2020 while filming for a movie titled LAC. Later, the actor in an interview with Bollywood Hungama revealed that Salman Khan paid his pending hospital bills. He said, "Sab kehte hai Salman ye hai, woh hai... mere liye woh bohat acche hain (People say Salman is this and that... but for me he is a gem of a person)."

Rahul Roy was joined by his soul sister, Hari Maa Priyanka, during the interview. They were both moved by Salman Khan's kind gesture and noted that Salman chose not to publicize the incident.

Rahul was promptly taken to Wockhardt Hospital, where he underwent brain and heart surgeries. Subsequently, he was admitted to the ICU at Nanavati Hospital in Mumbai.

During the interview, Rahul Roy's sister Hari Maa Priyanka brought up the topic, expressing gratitude to Salman Khan for clearing the pending medical bills in February. Priyanka mentioned that Salman Khan had called Rahul and asked if he could assist in any way, and ultimately, he helped clear the bill.

In the interview, Priyanka also mentioned that the most beautiful thing was that Salman Khan did not discuss his gesture with the media. She added that Salman's actions made her feel he is a true star, saying it showed he genuinely cares for people.

Priyanka explained that someone stepping forward to help without being asked, especially from a large crowd, is what truly defines a star—not just their on-camera persona. She emphasized that Salman’s actions touched her heart and that he is a gem of a person.
