0

Bollywood Celebrities got a lot of criticism that they are not coming forward to make contributions to Corona Relief works. As we know all south heros announced their donations to relief works and also cine workers in TFI. 

Akshay Kumar comes to contribute Rs 25 crores for the corona relief fund. He tweeted the same on his twitter handle “This is that time when all that matters is the lives of our people. And we need to do anything and everything it takes. I pledge to contribute Rs 25 crores from my savings to @narendramodi ji’s PM-CARES Fund. Let’s save lives, Jaan hai toh jahaan hai.”

We all know that PM Modi has announced that Prime Minister’s Citizen Assistance and Relief in Emergency Situations Fund (PM-CARES Fund) and invited everyone to contribute their donations. I hope more Bollywood Celebrities will come to Contribute to Corona Relief. 

 

Mahesh Babu Added Rs. 25 Lakhs to his Donation

With the lockdown of the entire country due to Coronavirus, everyone has been restricted to their homes. Things have come to a standstill all around the world. Even as though this is turning out to be a huge problem for everyone, the worst affected during this crisis remain to be daily wage workers.

There are a number of such daily wage workers in the Telugu Film Industry, and it is they who are facing the worst right now. Many Tollywood celebrities have contributed some amount to these workers.

Now, Superstar Mahesh Babu has come forward and has donated Rs. 25 Lakhs to these workers. Mahesh already donated Rs. 1 Crore to the CM relief funds of AP and Telangana as well.

superstar Prabhas has given 4 crores donation

While Telugu heroes are always generous and big-hearted when it comes to donating money in times of need, not all other superstars in the country are the same. Despite the fact that Bollywood heroes make almost 3-4 times more than what a Telugu superstar makes, their donations always fall short of what their Telugu counterparts do.

To help governments in this battle against coronavirus, star Telugu heroes have given big donations, while some Bollywood stars like Hrithik Roshan and Kapil Sharma gave 50 lakhs for the same. And right now Bollywood media is talking about Telugu superstar Prabhas who has given 4 crores donation, including 3 crores to PM Relief Fund and 1 crore for Telugu states.

When a newcomer like Prabhas, who has risen big only after Baahubali has given so much for the country, how come India’s richest stars who are in Forbes10 list all the time, never gave any donation till date or given only petite amounts as their contribution?

As these discussions are happening, some celebs like Salman Khan are said to be planning to help struggling cine workers but haven’t announced any donation to governments.

Welcome Tweet From Popular celebrities

Chiru entered Twitter and many big stars like Mohanlal, Mahesh Babu, Puri Jagan and others have welcomed him to the micro blogging world. But then, there is no such tweet of welcome from Allu Arjun, upsetting mega fans once again, as they are already thinking that the gap between mega and Allu families has widened big time.

Back then, whenever Allu Arjun never spoke about teaser or trailer of Sye Raa or other mega films, it is said that he is busy with shooting.
