At the jewellery shop, the couple held hands as they browsed the mangalsutra collection, and eventually settled for the one they liked. When the shopkeeper gently asked how much they had, the woman said she had Rs 1,120 in cash."So much money?" the shopkeeper smiled, jokingly. Mistaking his reaction for concern, the elderly woman's husband checked his bag and pulled out two bundles of coins to make up for the remaining amount.However, what followed left the couple as well as the shop staff emotional. Moved by their innocence and modesty, the shopkeeper refused to take the full payment. Instead, he requested just Rs 10 from each of them, charging a symbolic Rs 20 for the mangalsutra.'Please keep your money. Just bless me, and may Lord Pandurang bless us all,' he said, as per the caption of the video.advertisementWatch the video here: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Girish Bharadwaj (@girishbdwj)No prizes for guessing that social media users couldn't hold back their tears.

Did you know Aamir Khan once REFUSED to work with Madhuri Dixit in a song for THIS reason?
In 1990, the blockbuster film *Dil*, starring Aamir Khan and Madhuri Dixit, faced a hurdle when Aamir hesitated to perform the song "Dum Duma Dum." He felt intimidated by Madhuri's exceptional dancing skills, fearing he would be overshadowed. Director Indra Kumar eventually persuaded him, and the film became a massive success, solidifying both actors' careers. Back in the golden era of the 1990s, when Madhuri Dixit ruled the silver screen and Aamir Khan was emerging as the thinking man's heartthrob, one blockbuster almost lost a key moment—because of a dance number. At the heart of the story is Dil (1990), a film that became the year's biggest hit, but not without some behind-the-scenes drama. What made Aamir hesitate to shake a leg with Bollywood's dancing queen? The reason might just surprise you. The film in question is Dil, released in 1990, featuring Aamir Khan and Madhuri Dixit in lead roles. A runaway success, Dil emerged as the highest-grossing film of the year and played a pivotal role in catapulting both actors to greater stardom. Its box office triumph marked a turning point in their careers. Aamir Khan made his acting debut with Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak in 1988, while Madhuri Dixit rose to fame the same year with the blockbuster Tezaab. Their first collaboration came with Dil in 1990, a film that not only became a massive hit but also took both their careers to new heights. Dil remains a beloved classic, not just for its engaging storyline but also for its memorable soundtrack. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Use an AI Writing Tool That Actually Understands Your Voice Grammarly Install Now Undo One interesting bit of trivia from the film's making involves Aamir Khan initially refusing to perform the song Dum Duma Dum with Madhuri Dixit.

' It was only after much persuasion from director Indra Kumar that Aamir finally agreed to do the song. Dil, starring Aamir Khan, Madhuri Dixit, Anupam Kher, and Saeed Jaffrey, was a massive box office success. Released in 1990, the film earned around Rs 20 crores, making it the highest-grossing film of the year and a turning point in the careers of its lead actors.

As per a report shared by the website Hurun India Rich List, the T-Series family has a net worth of $1.2 billion (over Rs 10,000 crore). Despite having a massive empire of Rs 10,000 crore, there is no superstar in their family. Their massive wealth made them the richest family in Bollywood placing them ahead of some of Bollywood's most iconic families, including the Khans, Kapoors, and even the Chopras. Source of Income for the Kumars Bhushan Kumar runs the massive business of T-Series with his uncle, Kishan Kumar, who is also the chairman of the company. His family members, including Bhushan's wife, actor-director Divya Khossla; his sister, actor Khushali Kumar; and his younger sister, singer Tulsi Kumar, are also actively involved in the business. Apart from their individual income, Bhushan's T-Series—originally a powerhouse music label—evolved into one of India's leading film production giants, backing all-time blockbusters such as Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, Dangal, 3 Idiots, Aashiqui 2, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Ek Tha Tiger, War, Andhadhun, and Chennai Express, among many others. Apart from Bhushan Kumar's family, the second spot for being the richest family has been secured by the Chopra family. Yash Raj Films and BR Films have a massive net worth of ₹8,000 crore, whereas the third spot is secured by Shah Rukh Khan. Shah Rukh Khan is the richest actor in Bollywood and has a net worth of ₹7,800 crore, reported Forbes.
