Hrithik Roshan has decided to provide 1.2 lakh nutritious cooked meals for those who are unable to provide for themselves in these times of COVID-19 lockdown.
Hrithik will fulfill the cooking requirements of the needy in association with the NGO Akshaya Patra.
On receiving support from Hrithik, the NGO took to Twitter to thank the Super 30 actor.
“We are happy to share, our Foundation is now empowered by Superstar @iHrithik. Together, we will facilitate 1.2 lakh nutritious cooked meals to old age homes, daily wage labourers & low income groups across India, until normalcy in work routine”
“We salute the immediate help from Superstar Hrithik Roshan in providing relief and supporting the health & well-being of ALL INDIANS in need of care. We deeply thank you for your gesture,” the post read.
Responding to the tweet, Hrithik tweeted: “I wish you the power to ensure that NO ONE in our country sleeps hungry. You all are the real superheroes on ground. #IndiaFightsCorona #CovidRelief.”
Hrithik recently provided N95 and FFP3 masks for the BMC workers and caretakers.
A lot of Bollywood celebrities have extended their helping hand to the government by making a donation to the PM CARES fund, relief fund of the state government or by supporting various daily wage workers. After the two ‘Khans’ of the industry– Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan, the third one has now come forward and contributed to the cause.
Actor Aamir Khan has donated to Narendra Modi’s PM-CARES fund as well as the Maharashtra relief fund. Not only this, but he has also even decided to help the daily wage workers of his next film, Lal Singh Chaddha, during the time of the lockdown.
Trade Analyst Taran tweeted, “#AamirKhan donates to… #PMCares #Maharashtra Chief Minister Relief Fund # Extended support to the daily wage workers of his forthcoming film #LaalSinghChaddha. #COVID19Pandemic #CoronaVirus #Covid_19 #COVID19.
