Amid
the
Novel
Coronavirus
pandemic,
actor
Sachiin
J
Joshi
has
offered
his
Mumbai
hotel
to
the
BrihanMumbai
Municipal
Corporation
(BMC)
to
quarantine
COVID-19
positive
patients
coming
from
abroad.
The
actor
was
approached
by
BMC
and
he
agreed
to
lend
his
36-room
Beatle
Hotel
in
Powai
to
them
for
quarantine
facility.
The
Jackpot
actor,
who
is
currently
stranded
in
Dubai,
told
IANS,
"Mumbai
being
a
densely
populated
city,
there
are
not
enough
hospitals
and
beds
to
take
measures
to
save
our
city.
When
the
BMC
approached
us
for
help,
we
voluntarily
agreed
to
help."
He
further
added,
"We've
converted
our
hotel
with
the
BMC's
help
into
a
quarantine
facility
for
travellers.
The
entire
building
and
rooms
get
sanitised
regularly
with
staff
equipped
with
the
necessary
gear."
Sachiin's
actress-wife
Raina
Joshi
told
the
news
agency,
"I'm
glad
that
our
hotel
in
Powai
'The
Beatle'
has
been
given
to
the
BMC
for
quarantining
people.
It's
my
husband's
decision
and
I
respect
and
support
it.
We
have
been
distributing
food
from
our
hotel
to
all
officials
and
people
stuck
on
the
road.
Our
team
has
been
selflessly
doing
it
for
almost
two
weeks
now
and
will
continue
to
give
our
support
till
we
can."
Sachiin
is
also
donating
nutritious
food
boxes
to
policemen
and
municipal
workers
fighting
the
COVID-19
outbreak
in
India
through
his
Big
Brother
Foundation.
The
actor
was
last
seen
in
the
horror
film
Amaavas
opposite
Nargis
Fakhri.
Last
week,
Bollywood
superstar
Shah
Rukh
Khan
offered
his
personal
office
space
in
the
city
to
BMC
for
quarantine
purpose.
"We
thank
@iamsrk
&
@gaurikhan
for
offering
their
4-storey
personal
office
space
to
help
expand
our
Quarantine
capacity
equipped
with
essentials
for
quarantined
children,
women
&
elderly.
Indeed
a
thoughtful
&
timely
gesture!"
(sic),
wrote
BMC
in
a
tweet,
thanking
King
Khan
and
his
wife
Gauri.
