The actor had earlier donated a huge sum of Rs 25 crore to PM CARES Fund and also made hefty donations to CM’s relief fund. The actor had a few days back decided to contribute Rs 1 crore each to Bihar and Assam Chief Minister’s Relief Fund to help combat the flood situation in their states.
The actor had in 2019 donated Rs 1 crore to Orissa’s relief fund after the state was hit by Cyclone Fani. He had, later in the same year, donated finds to rehabilitate 25 families from Bihar who had struggled during the floods in October.
