Krrish star Hrithik Roshan has stepped in to support his fellow members from Cine and TV Artistes' Association (CINTAA). The actor has donated Rs 20 lakh to the association and also provided ration kits to them to help out those members who are below poverty line. General secretary of CINTAA, Amit Behl confirms the same, adding, "Hrithik Roshan had helped us during the last lockdown too; he had donated Rs 25 lakh. This time, the money he gives us will be utilised in getting 5000 members of the association vaccinated and help members below the poverty line with ration''.
Earlier, Vicky Kaushal, had helped CINTAA with a donation of around Rs 2.5 lakh, while actress Flora Saina has donated Rs 25 thousand. About 60 per cent of CINTAA members are daily wage workers who have been most hit due to the new SOPs of the government as it prevents them from getting work. Hrithik has been actively involved in doing his bit during the Covid-19 crisis. Hrithik had reportedly joined a host of American stars to help raise funds for India's COVID-19 relief efforts. Doing his bit for those suffering due to the pandemic, Hrithik helped raise an estimated USD 3.68 million. On the work front, Hrithik, who was last seen in the 2019 film 'War', will next feature in 'Fighter' alongside Deepika Padukone. He will also start shooting for the Indian adaptation of 'The Night Manager'. The actor also has 'Krrish 4' and the Hindi remake of the Tamil crime thriller 'Vikram Vedha' in the pipeline. Many Bollywood celebrities, including Sonu Sood, Amitabh Bachchan, Priyanka Chopra, Salman Khan, Raveena Tandon, Alia Bhatt, Ajay Devgn and others, have come forward to help people suffering from Covid-19.
