Anushka Sharma's Birthday Pledge Is Proof That She's A Real Animal Lover!
Anushka Sharma pledged on her birthday on May 1, 2018 that she'll build animal shelters on the outskirts of Mumbai and we as fellow human beings have to be compassionate towards animals.
On
her
30th
birthday
on
May
1,
2018,
Bollywood
star
Anushka
Sharma
announced
she
is
building
an
animal
shelter
on
the
outskirts
of
Mumbai.
The
actor,
who
is
an
animal
lover,
said
she
always
dreamt
of
doing
something
to
support
her
"fellow
living
beings".
"I'm
building
an
animal
shelter
just
outside
Mumbai-
a
home
for
those
animals
that
are
stranded,
left
to
fend
for
themselves,
have
to
brave
harsh
surroundings.
A
home
where
they
will
be
cared
for,
loved,
protected
and
nurtured.
This
has
been
my
calling
for
years
now
and
my
dream
is
finally
coming
true.
I
will
seek
your
time,
support
and
advice
to
make
this
home
a
place
that
looks
after
fellow
living
beings
with
utmost
care
and
compassion
-
all
in
due
course
of
time," Anushka
said.
Anushka
Sharma
Lends
A
Helping
Hand!
The
Pari
actor
urged
people
to
take
care
of
those
species
who
are
not
as
strong
as
human
beings.
"Think
about
how
they
live,
how
they
are
treated,
think
about
their
rights,
think
if
they
are
treated
fairly?
And
what's
worse,
even
if
they
aren't
being
treated
well,
they
have
no
means
of
doing
anything
about
it
and
that's
where
we
have
to
come
in
as
humans
who
stand
up
for
all
living
beings."
Helping
Animals
Is
Our
Responsibility,
Says
Anushka
"It
is
our
responsibility.
The
whole
purpose
of
being
the
strongest
species
is
to
look
out
for
the
welfare
of
all
those,
not
so
strong
ones
around
us,
so
that
we
truly
can
give
back
to
our
great
Mother
Earth
and
live
harmoniously,"
she
added.
Getting
Inspired!
Anushka
said
Dalai
Lama's
words
inspired
her
to
work
for
the
welfare
of
animals
and
make
the
world
a
better
place
for
them.
"I
was
deeply
moved
by
something
His
Holiness,
The
Dalai
Lama
said
and
his
words
have
stayed
with
me
since
then.
It
incepted
an
idea
deep
within
me
and
has
propelled
me
to
act
on
my
thoughts
of
working
for
animals
and
trying
to
make
the
world
a
better
place
for
them."
She
Quoted
Dalai
Lama
As
Well
"His
Holiness
had
said,
'Life
is
as
dear
to
a
mute
creature
as
it
is
to
a
man.
Just
as
one
wants
happiness
and
fears
pain,
just
as
one
wants
to
live
and
not
die,
so
do
other
creatures.'"
On
my
birthday,
in
my
own
little
way,
I'm
starting
something
that
will
give
our
fellow
living
beings
equal
rights,
equal
care
and
equal
love,"
she
said.
