Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar has donated Rs 1 crore to Chief Minister’s Relief Fund for Odisha cyclone Fani victims. The actor known for his generosity has always made sure to help those in need. The destruction that took place in Odisha last week due to cyclone Fani sent the entire country into sadness and gloom, with loss of so many precious lives and destruction all over the state. Help has been pouring in from various quarters in this time of crisis, and Akshay has also been one of the helping hands.

He has consistently proved that he doesn’t restrict his big-heartedness to just the heroes he plays on the big screen. In real life too, he has always been always ready to do his bit. Talking about the same, a source close to the actor said, “This is not new. Akshay has always been contributing for causes, be it his Bharat ke Veer initiative for the armed forces, or his contribution to the Kerala Floods or Chennai floods earlier.”
