Several Bollywood celebrities including Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Sonu Sood, Anushka Sharma, Sushmita Sen among others have come forward to help those affected by the pandemic by sourcing oxygen cylinders, medicines, hospital beds, food and more. As we speak of help, Soha Ali Khan along with her mother, actor Sharmila Tagore have decided to do something for animals. The mother-daughter duo will auction personal items from their closet for a virtual charity pop-up event. Yes, you read it right!
Why, you ask? The purpose of doing so is to raise funds for animal welfare as well as for environmental conservation. The mother-and-daughter duo will come together for the charity event to mark Mother's Day. In an interview with Mid Day, Soha shared her thoughts about the same and said, "The past year has made me value my loved ones and sharpened my perspective about what's important in life. Even though we are home-bound, we can all find ways to contribute. Clearing our closets is a concrete way to help raise funds."
Adding to that, Soha said, 'This is also our bit for environmental conservation. Proceeds from the sale will go to the Pataudi Trust and World For All -- an NGO whose work from animal welfare through the pandemic has been admirable." Sharmila Tagore added, "Apart from proceeds generating for charities, when people buy pre-loved pieces over newly manufactured ones, it is beneficial for the environment. Our combined pieces would save about 8, 46,527.92 litres of water and 2,070.68 kg of carbon." The mother-daughter will auction pieces like cocktail dresses, pashminas, Armanis and T-shirts.
The second wave of Coronavirus has hit India badly. Not only commoners, but celebrities are also doing their best to help others in much however they can.
