Coronavirus pandemic has had dastardly effects everywhere across the globe. A lot of lives have been lost due to COVID-19 and about more than 1.6 lakh people have been tested positive for the same. Since the fatal virus is contagious, the lockdown has been brought into effect so as to maintain social distancing and help beat the pandemic while staying at home and following proper hygiene conditions. Bollywood celebrities have been providing help to various government organisation and other non-profit organisations to people in need of financial assistance and daily needs. Salman Khan is one of the Bollywood movie stars who has been trying to help as many people as possible. And now after coming up with a line of hand sanitizers and making various provisions to help the needy, the Dabangg star has started a food donation drive to help the theatre workers.
Yuva Sena leader Rahul N Kanal who has been seeking out stars to extend help had approached Salman Khan for the same and the actor readily agreed. "We started the initiative when we heard about the plight of the artistes and technicians of Shri Shivaji Mandir Natyagruha. I reached out to Salman bhai who immediately agreed to help us. Each ration kit contains five kilos of rice and wheat flour, vegetables, oil, salt, spices and tea powder. We reached out to 186 workers on the first day and hope to extend help to other theatre artistes through them. We are practising safety measures while distributing the kits," Kanal told Mid-Day.
Further when it was brought to his notice that Ali Fazal has been building a database of all the theatre artists, Kanal added, "If we could get the contact numbers of any theatre company that needs support, we will be happy to help."
This kind gesture of the Bharat has touched several hearts.
