After Uday Shankar, Farhan Akhtar joins trend to donate PPE kits to Coronavirus frontline warriors

Bollywood actor Farhan Akhtar has donated 1,000 PPE or protective equipment for the Coronavirus frontline warriors in Mumbai, on the lines of many other donors such as Uday Shankar, Chairman of Star and Disney India.  PPEs will be extremely helpful during the lockdown that has been caused by the coronavirus pandemic.

Since there was a shortage of supply of personal protection equipment (PPE) for people working in the frontline, many celebrities have come to their aid and donated lakhs of PPE kits to the frontline heroes who are fighting Covid-19 and also encouraged the people to donate as much as they can.

Farhan inspired people to donate and the actor recently expressed his gratitude towards people who helped make the donation possible. He posted a picture of PPE kits on social media with the caption:

“Thanks for your support you amazing people.
Our first batch of PPE kits are on its way to Vakola Police Station from the factory.

Let’s protect our frontline warriors
Smiling face with smiling eyes🙏🏽 Jai Hind. @MumbaiPolice @DevenBhartiIPS @TringIndia”

Last week, Uday Shankar, who is President of the Walt Disney Company Asia Pacific and chairman, Star and Disney India, was among those to contribute 2 lakh PPEs in partnership with Project India. The company has donated over 200,000 PPE kits to the health workers at BMC and an additional 10,000 khakhi coloured kits for the Mumbai Police. The BMC tweeted, thanking it for the initiative.
