Think Lucius Malfoy and you're probably reminded of the man who gave Harry Potter loads of trouble. So while you may not be able to disassociate Jason Isaacs, the British actor who played Lucius Malfoy in the films, from the hateful character, the actor was in India recently and won hearts of some really special people.
Jason was in Agra recently, shooting 'Mumbai Hotel', a film based on the 26/11 terror attacks when he paid a visit to Sheroes Hangout, the only cafe in the country entirely run by acid attack survivors.
According Aditya Devi's report in TOI, Isaacs went to the cafe with his wife and two daughters in an auto rickshaw on Tuesday. Unaware of his star-stature, the Sheroes staff treated him as another tourist until someone asked his wife, Emma Hewitt, if he was 'Lucius Malfoy'.
After enjoying a vegetarian meal of daal and vegetables, Isaacs clicked pictures with the Sheroes staff and tweeted one, saying that India stunned him "witless".
India stuns me witless. Yesterday we ate here. It's run by magnificent acid attack survivors https://t.co/eVWUovVbcChttps://t.co/729cMiu0A2 pic.twitter.com/CjeNUjfU1l

He even returned to Sheroes cafe again to give the staff copies of Harry Potter, as he had promised earlier.
Not evil at all, right?
