Amid the coronavirus lockdown in India and the increasing cases of coronavirus in the country, after Bollywood actor Rajkummar Rao is doing his bit to fight the coronavirus pandemic. The actor has contributed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s relief fund, chief minister’s (Maharashtra) relief fund, and Zomato Feeding India to help feed families in need.
Rajkummar tweeted on Sunday, "It’s time to stand together and to help our administration in this fight against Coronavirus. I’ve done my bit..Donated to #PMReliefFund #CMReliefFund and to #ZomatoFeedingIndia to help feed families in need. Please support in whatever way you can. Our Nation Needs Us. Jai Hind."
But stood out for his followers was that the actor did not reveal the amount. "This is ideal example of charity. Reason behind this charity is pure care. no show off at all....Showing charity amount for publicity is nt good. Feeling proud of you @RajkummarRao for your charity work," one user wrote.
Yesterday Akshay Kumar contributed Rs 25 crore and Varun Dhawan too pledged Rs 30 lacs to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s coronavirus relief fund called PM Cares.
When Akshay was asked why he is always the first one to stand up for such causes, "Main kaun hota hoon ‘charity’ yah ‘donate’ karne waala? (who am I to donate or make any charity?)”. Doosri baat ki hum apni country ko Bharat Maa kehte hain. Mera yeh contribution actually mera nahi hai. Yeh meri maa ki taraf se Bharat Maa ko hai. (We address our country as Bharat Maa. So this contribution is not from me. It is from my mother to my motherland, Bharat Maa.)"
