Bollywood stars Abhishek Bachchan and Rani Mukherjee will flag off the Harmony-supported Senior Citizens' Run, an integral part of the third Standard Chartered Mumbai Marathon (SCMM) scheduled to be held on January 15.

Abhishek called upon everyone to join the Harmony sponsored 5-km Senior Citizens Run by urging, "Wake up, slip into your running gear and be there with us when we sprint along with the spirited silvers hitting the streets of Mumbai on January 15. No, this is no Bunty Aur Babli prank or the Bluffmaster speaking! This is for real where Rani and I invite you to bond with the young-at-heart! So catch up with us at the Harmony Run!"

The Harmony initiative, under the aegis of the Dhirubhai Ambani Memorial Trust and headed by Mrs Tina Ambani, seeks to promote the interests of senior citizens and help them sustain their sense of pride and self-esteem.

As many as 2,500 entries have been received for the Run. This is the second year in succession that Harmony is supporting the Senior Citizens Run in Mumbai.

The 5-km Mumbai run will be flagged off at 0815 hrs from Azad Maidan and wend its way through D N Road, Hutatma Chowk, Mahatma Gandhi Road, Mantralaya, Cama Road and end back at Azad Maidan.
