Pic: B L Soni | The small screen's chirpy Miilee (Mona Wasu) took a day off from shooting from the Star Plus daily yesterday, to extend a helping hand to flood-hit school children. Mona spent the morning with students of Shivshrusti Municipal School, Kurla. School badly hit
According to the channel, with the Ganesh festival underway, this was a small gesture from Miilee to cheer the little ones. Shivshrusti Municipal School was selected as it was badly hit during the July 26 floods, as it is very near the swollen Mithi river. UNICEF involved
Mona spent a lot of time with the kids. Along with Star Plus, the Rotary Club of Mumbai Downtown, held medical check-up camps in the school premises for the kids (dental, eye check-up and general checks) along with UNICEF, who shared with the school teachers and children, simple ways to observe cleanliness and hygiene. Miilee club
Miilee was chosen because she essays the character of a young destitute, who, despite her hardships, spreads happiness and laughter wherever she goes.
This event also saw the launch of the Miilee Friends Club for underprivileged and destitute children, who can interact with Miilee and bring joy into their lives. thelist@mid-day.com that's so sweet of her....she is very much like what she is onscreen... |
