October
27th 2017: Mukul
Madhav Foundation, the CSR arm of Finolex Industries Limited, arranged an
interactive session between underprivileged children from Samajik Vikas Kendra
Social Development Centre, Malad, Mumbai – an
NGO selflessly working for the overall development of underprivileged
slum/street dwelling children from Mumbai since 12 years, and the team of
Golmaal Again -Rohit Shetty, Tabu, Parineeti Chopra, Arshad Warsi, Shreyas
Talpade, Tusshar Kapoor, Kunal Khemu, who were the star attraction during the
event. The talented star cast were able to empower and enlighten the children
through their acting journeys during the interactive session and created a
special memory for the kids with a photo op.
These
20 children met with the actors amid much fanfare, as the MMF team along with
Finolex team transported the excited kids from the institution to the venue.
The children were able to have an insightful conversation with the actors, who
helped them realise that their dreams can become a reality in this life.
Besides, providing a perennial hope to the children, the MMF stands greatly for
enhancing the healthcare and social welfare of children
across districts.
On
the occasion, Ms. Ritu Chhabria, Director- Finolex Industries Ltd. and Managing
Trustee- Mukul Madhav Foundation said, “I am really glad and thankful to the stars
for turning up and meeting these wonderful kids. MMF has been associated with
Samajik Vikas Kendra Social Development Centre for a long time now and it was
definitely a moment of joy for these kids to meet the stars and spend an
evening with them. This would not have been possible without the support of
Finolex Industries who made these kids meet their favorite actors. My heartfelt
thanks to them.”
Speaking
on the occasion, Mr. Rohit Shetty said; “It is a great pleasure to see the
excitement and enthusiasm of the children to meet their favorite actors. This
initiative has surely helped to uplift the spirits of the actors alike the
children. These naughty kids have certainly shared a lot of positive energy
with their undying spirit and energy. We will go back with a lot of positive
memories of the event. I also thank Mukul Madhav Foundation for giving us this
opportunity and appreciate their commitment and work being done for these children.”
