It
seems
like
the
whole
of
Bollywood
has
taken
to
Charity
and
Philanthropy,
and
not
far
behind
in
this
race
is
Deepika
Padukone.
She
has
recently
adopted
a
village
in
Maharashtra
by
the
name
of
Ambegaon
that
needed
a
do-gooder
desperately.
Her
adoption
of
the
village
was
part
of
the
Greenathon
campaign
and
since
Ambegaon
village
was
facing
major
electricity
crisis,
Miss
Padukone
decided
to
do
the
needful.
She
decided
to
sponsor
them.
Picking
this
village
over
others
wasn't
a
spur
of
the
moment
decision
for
her.
She
did
a
lot
of
reading
and
research
before
she
gave
the
village
a
helping
hand.
Going
the
whole
way,
Deepika
plans
to
visit
the
village
in
the
near
future
again
to
see
the
progress.
That's
being
a
responsible
citizen.
What
say?
