In China, the death toll is rapidly increasing due to the spread of Coronavirus. The world is panic-stricken, especially, the neighbouring countries. Every day several innocent people are losing their life due to the spread of this deadly virus. Now, Punjabi actress Rubina Bajwa and beau Gurbaksh Chahal decided to help a Hong Kong charity to prevent the spread of Coronavirus.
The duo decided to take an initiative when they heard the news scarce supply of face masks; they had directly sent several face masks to Hong Kong. But procuring those masks wasn’t easy; they had to contact dozens of suppliers in Punjab as there was scarcity too.
Gurbaksh Chahal took to his social media handle to explain how he and Rubina Bajwa helped the Hong Kong charity. His post read as- “While in India, @rubina.bajwa and I heard news of panic from the scarce supply of face masks to protect individuals from contracting the corona virus. She insisted that we should directly bring the face masks to Hong Kong from Punjab. We contacted dozens of suppliers and struggled to find masks, as they too were starting to become a scarce commodity. But, managed to secure thousands of masks (N95 and surgical elastic masks) that we could fit inside as many pieces of luggage we could buy. Shortly after, we found out, India had banned all export of masks. But, we decided to still take the risk. The deed was more important than the risk. We left Sunday and ironically faced no hurdles bringing them over. With the help of the amazing team at @redlotuscom, we found three charities that focus on helping handicapped, low-income families and the blind to help distribute the masks. I’ve also been shocked at the way xenophobia has been spread to target the Chinese diaspora. At a time, when uncertainty brings out the wrong in humans - we feel, we have to believe that good will prevail. Without love, there is no hope. I encourage you all to see how you can help during this time.”
Rubina Bajwa also shared the same post on her official Instagram handle.
Further, on the work front, Rubina Bajwa will be next seen in ‘Teri Meri Gal Ban Gayi’ alongside Akhil. The movie is slated to be released this year. The actress will be also seen in upcoming films like ‘Beautiful Billo’, ‘Good Luck Jatta’ and ‘Parahuneya Nu Dafa Kro’. And Rubina has ‘Laavaan Phere 2’ in her kitty for next year.
