Several celebrities have come ahead to help the people in need during the ongoing pandemic. Sonu Sood is the most talked celebrity in this regard and has saved plenty of lives so far by doing charitable deeds. Cricketers aren’t behind in helping people and have donated big amounts to fulfil the needs of suffering people.
The latest example is of Virat Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma, who have saved the life of a child by raising a whopping amount. The couple urged people to come forward and donate for Ayaansh, a kid who is suffering from spinal muscular atrophy. This is a rare genetic disorder and requires the world’s most expensive medicine – Zolgensma. The medicine costs a whopping amount of INR 16 crores.
