Deepika adopts a Ambegaon village
Deepika Padukone adopts a village to tackle electricity problem there
Actress Deepika Padukone has adopted Ambegaon, a village in the interiors of Maharastra. As part of a Greenathon campaign, Deepika has decided to adopt the village. While other actors gave their names to different villages, Deepika had reason to choose Ambegaon.
After she heard that the village faced a major electricity crisis, she decided to sponsor them. A source reveals that before putting her name down, she tried to find as much information as possible about the place.
Deepika confirms adopting Ambegaon. "I heard that the place faces a blackout after sunset. Because of that, the villagers don't have much to do. Now with a regular supply of electricity they can do many things like study, read et al." She plans to follow it up by going there and seeing "the place personally some time in the future."
A source adds that Deepika did a lot of reading up and spoke with the Greenathon people to find out the problems of the villagers before adopting it.

It seems like the whole of Bollywood has taken to Charity and Philanthropy, and not far behind in this race is Deepika Padukone. She has recently adopted a village in Maharashtra by the name of Ambegaon that needed a do-gooder desperately.
Her adoption of the village was part of the Greenathon campaign and since Ambegaon village was facing major electricity crisis, Miss Padukone decided to do the needful. She decided to sponsor them. Picking this village over others wasn't a spur of the moment decision for her. She did a lot of reading and research before she gave the village a helping hand. Going the whole way, Deepika plans to visit the village in the near future again to see the progress. That's being a responsible citizen. What say?
