Television star Divyanka Tripathi recently did a kind gesture on social media that helped save life of a patient in critical condition. The actress recently came across a tweet by a user who wrote,"Dear @mybmc/@mybmcWardRS My friend’s father is in critical health and needs immediate medical attention. No hospital is willing to admit him in the ICU. Covid swab tests came negative. ICCU Treatment needed asap. Please help us out. Oxygen level has been dropping down!"

To which she responded,"Will we keep counting depressing numbers in news papers or will someone give him a bed please? This one is a desperate tweet. I hope people in need get fair admission to hospital (with or without Covid)."

Amid the rising number of coronavirus cases in Mumbai, many people are facing problems of being denied of admission in hospital. 

Seeing Divyanka’s tweet, BMC's official twitter account was quick to reply, “Ma'am, We have followed you. Request you to provide patient's details, number and address via DM.” 

The actress has also thanked Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation for their quick response.

Take a look at what went on Twitter:
