The relentless rains that have plagued several states in India for the past few days have resulted in devastating floods, particularly in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. The impact has been severe, leaving communities submerged and struggling to cope with the aftermath. The districts of Khammam and Vijayawada in the Telugu states have been especially hard hit, with floodwaters causing extensive damage and leaving many residents stranded and homeless. The lack of access to clean drinking water has exacerbated the situation, as the region is inundated with floodwater.
In response to this humanitarian crisis, Tollywood stars have stepped up to offer significant financial support. Venky Atluri, a prominent actor and writer in the Telugu film industry, announced a Rs 10 lakh relief fund, allocating Rs 5 lakh each to the Chief Minister’s Relief Funds of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. He expressed deep concern over the catastrophic damage, urging others to join in helping those affected. This gesture highlights the importance of unity and compassion during times of hardship.
Actor Nandamuri Balakrishna followed suit, demonstrating his generosity by donating over Rs 1 crore, with Rs 50 lakh each allocated to the relief funds of both states. Junior NTR, another prominent Tollywood actor, contributed Rs 50 lakh to each state as well, showcasing his commitment to supporting the affected communities. Other notable contributions include Rs 30 lakh from Siddu Jonnalagadda and Vyjayanthi Movies and Rs 10 lakh from young hero Vishwak. These generous donations reflect the widespread concern and willingness of Tollywood stars to lend a helping hand during this challenging time.
The flood situation in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana has underscored the need for collective action and support. The contributions from Tollywood celebrities serve as an inspiration for others to join in providing aid and relief to the affected communities. As the floodwaters recede, the focus shifts to recovery and rebuilding, and the support from individuals and organizations will be crucial in aiding those affected in regaining their lives and livelihoods.
