Kher tweeted about the doctorate by posting a video of the event and called it one of the "biggest highlights" of his life. The Hindu University of America is based out of Orlando, Florida.
According to reports, the 66-year-old actor said that the doctorate will give him a platform to talk about the philosophy of Hinduism, the philosophy of the oldest culture in the world.
Kher is currently touring several cities in the US with his new show Zindagi Ka Safar. The actor has signed up for filmmaker Sooraj Barjatya's new film titled Oonchai, which he will start shooting for once he returns to India.
