The life of Chennai dwellers is on stake due to heavy rains and flood since December 2. Reportedly the city hasn’t received such a heavy rainfall in the past 100 years. Many leading actors from the Telugu and Tamil film industries have announced their contribution towards the Tamil Nadu Fund Relief for the affected victims. Thalaiva has also announced to donate a huge amount of 10 Crores. From last few days this South Superstar was criticised by everyone for his help of Rs 10 lakh for the rain affected victims of Chennai and Tamil Nadu. Guess he was waiting for the right moment, Rajinikanth is turning 65 on December 12 and he has said no to any kind of celebrations. He has decided to donate the money which was about to be spent on the bash. He has handed over a cheque of 10 crore to Tamilnadu Chief Minister Jayalalitha for the CM Relief fund to help people who were severely affected by the Chennai floods. Other actors have also come forward to contribute towards the relief work. NTR’s actor-brother, Kalyanram, has announced a contribution of Rs 5 lakh to the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister’s Relief Fund. Sampoornesh Babu, said he would donate Rs 50,000 for relief in the state ravaged by heavy rains and floods. Mahesh Babu donated Rs 10 lakh for the relief. Ravi Teja donated Rs 5 lakh. Varun Tej donated Rs 3 lakh. Allu Arjun has to donate Rs 25 lakh. Other South superstars like Suriya, Dhanush, Vishal, Karthi have donated Rs 50 lakh, combined, for the TN relief fund.
After reading all these amounts we can conclude that Tollywood remembers to pay back what they earned from their fellow citizens, hope the Superstars in Bollywood too remember the same and come forward to provide some help for the victims.
Happy Birthday Thalaiva.
