As part of Covid-19
relief, actress Aakanksha Singh organised a food distribution drive in her
hometown, Jaipur, recently. Now, she auctioned her wardrobe to raise funds for
Covid-19 relief in mumbai. “I thought I would give away my
wardrobe to help Covid-19 patients. I hope
people come together to help me with the cause and buy the clothes I am putting
on sale,” says the actress.
Aakanksha feels that these are tough times for
everyone and it’s imperative that public figures realise that they have an
added responsibility to set a precedent for others. “The pandemic has hit us
hard and the current situation is really sad. There are so many people who are
struggling with hospital expenses, lack of oxygen cylinders and other
healthcare-related issues. Public figures have a greater responsibility to do
their bit as they can motivate people to come together and extend a helping
hand,” says the Pailwan (2019) actress.
She adds that she is happy with the way the film industry has unified to help the needy meet the requirements due to the pandemic. Aakanksha says, “It’s great that people from our industry are using social media to provide help. My only request to everybody is to only post the verified leads because it otherwise might delay the help to those who need it urgently.”
