Amrita Rao proud of Lalbaugcha Raja Ganeshotsav Mandal for putting people's safety first instead of celebrating the festival
Bollywood actress Amrita Rao is feeling proud of Mumbai's Lalbaugcha Raja Mandal for not celebrating the Ganeshotsav this year in August due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Instead, the Mandal has decided to organize blood and plasma donation camps in its place. They will also be providing financial support to the families of policemen who died of Coronavirus.
Amrita Rao, in an interview with ETimes, said, "Lalbaugcha Raja Ganeshotsav Mandal has taken it to another level of nobility by deciding to organize blood and plasma donation camps. They will also be providing financial assistance to the families of policemen who died of Covid-19 in place of this year's annual Ganesh Utsav celebrations".
"I hope every big pandal in the city takes inspiration from Lalbaugcha Raja. This year Ganapati Bappa is giving his blessings through humanity and doctors", the actress said.
She further said, "I have been visiting the pandal since my childhood and my Ganesh Chaturthi celebration are incomplete without this darshan, however, I am truly impressed and grateful to them that without thinking about donations or any other factor they have postponed their pandal celebration this August in the best interest of the public's health".
The 39-year old actress also feels that the COVID-19 pandemic has given humans a wake-up call that if we don't act to protect the environment, it will find its own way of regaining the balance.
"Nature had to literally lock humans down in their homes to regain its balance. The rivers and lakes have self purified themselves from our toxic treatment. COVID-19 has been a huge wake-up signal from the environment and as responsible citizens, we must strive to keep our environment pure and toxic-free".
While Amirta gave put her thoughts on the popular festival and the impact of COVID-19, the Vivah actress is fully observing the government guidelines and enjoying her time at home during the lockdown. On the work front, Amrita was last seen in the biopic 'Thackeray' which also starred Nawazuddin Siddiqui in the role of Marathi politician Balasaheb Thackeray.
