“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,” an industry source told Hidustantimes.com.
Cyclone Fani hit Odisha on Friday (May 3), causing massive damage and leaving the coastal state grappling with water shortage and power cuts. At least 34 people were killed, including 21 from Puri district.
