Cyclone
Fani
has
battered
the
entire
state
of
Odisha
and
people
are
in
despair
and
in
need
of
immediate
help.
Several
precious
lives
have
already
been
lost
and
many
of
them
are
injured
and
left
out
of
place.
The
whole
country
is
contributing
to
rebuild
and
help
the
people
of
Odisha
by
collecting
funds
and
providing
necessary
items
for
their
everyday
need
and
survival.
Akshay
Kumar
has
donated
Rs
1
crore
to
the
Chief
Minister's
Relief
Fund
and
is
doing
his
bit
to
help
people
recover
from
the
natural
disaster.
"This
is
not
new.
Akshay
has
always
been
contributing
for
causes,
be
it
his
Bharat
Ke
Veer
initiative
for
the
Armed
Forces,
or
his
contribution
to
the
Kerala
floods
or
Chennai
floods
earlier," says
an
industry
source
to
HT.
Just
a
year
ago,
Akshay
Kumar
raised
Rs
29
crores
to
support
159
families
of
the
Armed
Forces
through
the
Bharat
Ke
Veer
campaign
and
managed
to
change
the
lives
of
many
families
who
were
in
need
of
financial
support.
The
campaign
was
supported
by
the
Union
Home
Ministry.
Also,
the
actor
had
donated
Rs
1
crore
to
the
Chennai
flood
relief
in
2015
as
well.
It's
good
to
see
Akshay
Kumar
lending
a
helping
hand
when
the
country
and
its
people
are
in
need
and
we
applaud
his
big-heartedness
for
being
a
hero
both
on
screen
and
off
screen.
