'This event has been organised for Salman, who is in US fighting his ailment. God willing, he will be fine soon. We have felicitated Mr.Raj Babbar, who has starred in `Bodyguard' as well. We are glad that he agreed to come for the special screening, and shown support to us for a charity programme related to `Bodyguard', ' Kapur told.

'The money made out of the second week screenings of `Bodyguard' at Movie Time, Rajouri Garden, will be donated to an NGO called PVR Nest, which works towards homeless and underprivileged kids, ' he added.

Talking about Salman, Raj Babbar said: ''Bodyguard' is a film about emotions and love, and Salman has given a lot of love and emotion to people of India despite the ups and downs of his life. He has been a true winner.'
