run mumbai run!(ronit and cezzane)

The spirit of Mumbai would come alive once again when people across professional, economic and social classes would come together to take part in the Mumbai Marathon. Some run for a cause while others for personal reasons, but whatever the reason might be, the spirit of occasion definitely needs to be saluted.

We try to find out who amongst the television stars are taking part in the marathon and their motivations for same.

Poonam Dhillon

I will take part in the marathon on Sunday. I would be running for the children who suffer from autism. It is a disease that does not have physiological manifestation, but is the cause of many a traumas in the family that has somebody suffering from it. Though I won't be running the full marathon but would take part in the shorter version.

Mona Singh

I would not be able to take part in the marathon that has become a part of the city's ethos. I will be flying to Dubai for a live event for which I have already rehearsed. May be in the next year's marathon you may see me participating.

Ronit Roy

I am not lucky enough to take part in the Mumbai Marathon as I'm tied up with my busy shooting schedule on that day. The concept of marathon, I believe is a great way of showing concern for various issues.

Cezzane Khan

I so wish I had time to take part in the marathon. My shooting schedules are quite hectic these days and I don't get time to do anything else. I love the spirit that drives so many people to come together and run in the race. Hats off to them!

Bhaktiyaar Irani

I have already registered myself for the marathon race and would most likely make it to the event. I would be running for a cause to raise awareness about obesity and its harmful effects. Since I am already physically fit, I am not taking any special training for the race.

Rakshanda Khan

Yes, I would be part of the race on Sunday. I would be participating for Make A Wish foundation who work for the underprivileged. Though I am suffering from a knee injury and might not be able to run for long, but I will definitely be present on the occasion.
