Most Charitable Bollywood Celebrities

Mother Teresa quoted, "It's not how much we give but how much love we put into giving." You have not lived until you have done something for someone who can never repay you. And our Bollywood celebrities have done just that, they have shared a huge amount of their earnings to help the people in need.

While some Bollywood celebrities love to splurge on themselves, family and friends, there are quite a few celebrities who think beyond family when it comes to putting their money into good use. Certain celebrities simply waste bags of money on expensive gadgets, lavish parties and gifts like Shah Rukh Khan who is known for his expensive gifts to friends but when it comes to charity, the Badshah is missing from the scene.

His arch rival, Salman Khan is totally opposite, in fact he is known for his charitable organization called Being Human all over the world. Initially Salman supported this NGO through his personal earnings but now he has created a clothing brand by the same name, whose earnings go completely towards the NGO.

It's not just Salman Khan, there are quite a few celebrities who have this charity streak in them, let's take a look at those celebrities who are involved in this good cause of charity.
