Sushant Singh Rajput has been going all out to help the victims of Kerala floods.

Just recently, the actor donated INR 1 Crore from his earnings to the Kerala CMDRF (Chief Minister Distress Relief Fund) and now we hear that he and his team have been working around the clock to make sure to help people in need in every possible way.

Soon after donating the amount, Sushant shared a post on his social media encouraging and requesting everyone to extend their support.

This morning, the actor shared a post on his Instagram account, thanking an airline's employee for waving off this 150 kg extra luggage that his team was taking to Kerala and Coorg.

When we tried finding out more, we got to know that the actor has not only sent relief materials, but has also sent a a team to Kerala to set up base there and help with the volunteering work, skilled labour and distribution of essential material for the rehabilitation of homes and people who have suffered trauma in these floods.

The team consists of five volunteers from TISS (Tata Institute of Social Sciences), skilled electricians and carpenters. Sushant has also posted about the urgent requirement of Doxycycline capsules which is being distributed right now in Kerala for tackling bacterial infections among the affected population.

When contacted, a spokesperson from Innsaei, SSR's business venture, shared, "The challenge ahead for the country right now is one of rehabilitation of the flood-affected population. In light of this, our team of 11 people has landed in Kerala consisting of five volunteers from TISS (Tata Institute of Social Sciences), skilled electricians and carpenters.

They will be assessing the problems with the rehabilitation of homes and contributing with their efforts in coordination with the local bodies. While we are asking people to join hands through our social media handles, we want to use this medium to ask doctors and paramedics to join us in this cause for tackling the medical emergency that could be brewing.

We would also need psychologists and counsellors to work with us to tackle the post-traumatic stress that a lot of survivors must be going through."
