Pearl Transfers Money To 100 Spot Boys; Accounts
Updated : June 02, 2020 10:13 AM ISTSince the lockdown began in India, there were several film celebs who came to the forefront to help and till date, we keep hearing about how the actors and directors of the film industry are taking it upon themselves to help the needy.
And recently we got to know, Naagin actor Pearl V Puri is the last to join the bandwagon and he donated money in order to help the daily wage cine-workers.
In an interaction with Hindustan Times, the TV actor has been quoted as saying, "I recently received a couple of calls from spot boys, who were part of my TV shows and they shared that they were facing problems and tough situations due to this lockdown. I thought that there would be so many others like them from the industry. And I felt I should do whatever I can in my capacity to help. It felt like it was my responsibility to help them. So, I asked for a list of spot boys, which included their contacts and bank details, and the list I received had more than 100 names, that too from one particular production house. I immediately transferred money into their accounts, which is the least I could do in these circumstances.”
He further went on to say, “We are all in this together and we have to look after each other. My heart weeps for them and I will always do whatever I can for people who are in need. I just hope this pandemic ends soon and we can get back to our lives. Till then please stay home and safe."
At the same time, he is an avid animal lover and therefore he also makes it a point to feed stray dogs from time to time.
