Amid backing all causes during the coronavirus outbreak, Akshay Kumar is stepping up to provide sanitary pads to underprivileged women across Mumbai. On Menstrual Hygiene Day, the actor took to his social media to talk about his initiative.
On May 28, the actor took to his Twitter handle and urged everyone to help them in providing sanitary pads. "A great cause needs your support. COVID doesn't stop periods, help provide sanitary pads to underprivileged women across Mumbai. Every donation counts," he tweeted.
This special initiative is led by Samarpan, a group of doctors and civil servants, who are working towards helping daily wage workers and migrant labourers.
Akshay Kumar had highlighted the issue in his film PadMan. Now, he has joined hands to help 10,000 women.
