Shah Rukh Khan has been presented with the Global Diversity Award at the State Room of Britain’s House of Commons in London while he was in the British capital to promote his new movie and perform at The O2 for Slam+ The Tour.
The Award was presented by the British Parliament by the 136th Leader of the office of Speaker Rt Hon John Bercow MP. Rt Hon Keith Vaz MP, Chair of the Home Affairs committee conducted the grand ceremony. Other members of the Parliament from both houses, Commons and Lords were also present on this occasion.
Rainbow Foundation which co-ordinates with the Next Foundation each year, the award of the “Global Diversity Award” to an outstanding individual who has made a major contribution to Worldwide Diversity, is an international role model and icon.
Previous recipients of the Award have included: Jackie Chan, the International film Star, Amitabh Bachchan, Sheikh Hassina, the Prime Minister of Bangladesh; Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Lewis Hamilton, the Formula 1 Racing World Champion and Rev Jesse Jackson, the former US Presidential Candidate to name a few.
