Under an arrangement made jointly with the All India Anti-Terrorist Front, Salman Khan said he would undertake the humanitarian endeavour and "secure lives impacted by human disaster".

The Bollywood star known for his generosity made the announcement at a function he was felicitated with the Pride of the Nation award at the FICCI Auditorium here Tuesday.

Given for spreading the message of patriotism, secularism and national integration through his films, including his upcoming venture "Veer", releasing Friday, the actor was honoured at the Anti-Terrorist Front Veer Bravery Awards.

Organised by AIATF, the award was given to Salman Khan by its chairman Maninderjit Singh Bitta, himself a victim of terrorist attack, along with terrorist victims' children.
