Bollywood celebrities have been doing their bit in order to help the citizens of the country during the coronavirus lockdown, helping the government fight it by pledging financial assistance. 

Yesterday Akshay Kumar donated Rs 25 crore to the Prime Minister’s Citizen Assistance and Relief in Emergency Situations (PM CARES) fund after which author Shefali Vaidya questioned how much the Khans, mainly Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, and Aamir Khan, had donated. 
Producer Nikhil Dwivedi jumped to their defence.

Nikhil responded to Shefali’s tweet and said that Salman, Shah Rukh and even Amitabh Bachchan are extremely generous. "SalmanKhan’s BeingHuman foundation works round the year. Once, I myself was sceptical of it. In recent years I hd the opportunity of observing it closely& was pleasantly shockd at the kind of monies it spent. Its a sincere charity. SRK spends substantially too. So does MrBachchan," Nikhil tweeted. 

It was reported today that Salman has pledged to support 25,000 daily wage workers from the film industry through his charitable organisation Being Human Foundation. Meanwhile, Shah Rukh had earlier said in an interview that he likes to keep his contributions under the radar. 

"I don’t like talking about it [charity]. A lot of people and my friends always tell me I should do photographs and stuff when I meet some people. But I don’t believe in it. It is a true thing that if I believe in a cause, I should do it silently and not use my persona as an actor to advocate that."
