Hrithik Roshan Extends Help to Paparazzi amid Coronavirus Pandemic

Bollywood celebrities are leaving no stone unturned to help the needy amidst these tough times the nation is facing. The coronavirus pandemic has caused tremendous financial losses and the need for monetary help and medical assistance is on the high.

With the number of cases only growing with each passing day, B-town celebs are coming forward to do their bit to help the daily wage cine workers. After donating N95 and FFP3 masks for the BMC workers and caretakers, Hrithik Roshan stepped forward to provide 1.2 lakh nutritious cooked meals for those who cannot help themselves with it.

And now, Hrithik has extended help to the paparazzi, who are left with no work and source of income after the lockdown. Celebrity photographer Viral Bhayani thanked Hrithik for helping the photographers amid the coronavirus pandemic.

In a post, Viral Bhayani mentioned: 

The entire world is right now in crisis, there was already the issue of a downturn due to which there were salary cuts, jobs were at stake and media houses were shutting down. Now with this virus, it has devastated all of us. I have a huge team on the ground which works tirelessly to capture the celebrities. But now with this crisis, my only source income has stopped and it has become extremely difficult to keep my family as well as 15 plus families who were all supported on the income I generated through the subscription of my pictures and the paid posts of my Instagram. In such dire straits actor, Hrithik Roshan on his own came forward and supported the paps who hail from lower-middle-class families.

He also mentioned that while actors have been generously donating to the relief fund, the photographers do not benefit from it as they do not belong to an association. He concluded his post by expressing gratitude towards the actor for his big help.

He concluded the post by writing: 

I’m grateful to Hrithik for helping us in our crisis time. Many other actors have come forward and supported the film industry, but since we do not belong to any film association or trade union – we could not get the benefit which many other leading actors have come forward and announced. #hrithikroshan.
