Akshay has always been on frontline when it comes to charity during tough times. He has been an inspiration for other celebrities. He said, “Main kaun hota hoon ‘charity’ ya ‘donate’ karne waala?.

He said, “It’s important that I refer to my mother here because poori duniya mein ek fear hai that senior citizens will be ignored and left to themselves during this coronavirus crisis. Hum yeh soch bhi kaise sakte hain. Meri maa ki jaan important hai, aapke maa baap ki jaan important hai. No matter who we are, trying to save every single life is critical right now. Maine sirf iski taraf apna ek chhotta sa farz ada kiya hai”
