Indian actor Farhan Akhtar has planned something different to celebrate Pakistan and India’s Independence Day together. Bollywood playback singer/actor has joined hands with other artists to feed the poor and unprivileged Pakistanis and Indians on this year’s Independence Day.
The artists, including Farhan, Vishal Dadlani and Clinton Cerejoto, will sing the Mission 500k anthem with volunteers from Karachi, Islamabad, Lahore, Mumbai, New Delhi and Chennai.
The Robin Hood Army (RHA), an organization that works to address problems of food wastage and hunger, is tying up with its Pakistani counterpart, for #Mission500k.
“The Robin Hood Army’s desire to feed half a million people across India and Pakistan this year on their respective Independence Days is an effort I whole-heartedly support,” the ‘Dil Dhadakne Do’ actor was quoted as saying according to Mumbai Mirror.
“I appeal to people everywhere to participate in this incredible initiative to help eradicate hunger and malnutrition. It’s our world. We have to make it better,” he added.
Food wastage in different eateries is a very common problem found in the metropolis areas like Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Mumbai and Delhi. Hence, Robin Hood Army feeds the poor by taking food from affluent restaurants.
