Actor, Akshay Kumar is a man with a big heart and known for his generosity. Earlier this year, he had donated Rs 25 crore to the PM relief care fund for COVID-19, Rs 2 crore to the Mumbai Police Foundation and Rs 3 crore to the BMC, to assist them in creating masks, kits, and personal protective equipment for fighting the coronavirus.
Now, the actor has again donated a large amount. As Assam is reeling under the effects of the ongoing floods, the actor has donated Rs 1 Crore. He paid the amount to the Assam Chief Minister’s relief fund, which will help the people affected in the state.
The chief minister of Assam Sarbananda Sonowal thanked the actor for his kind gesture on Twitter. The minister posted the following tweet to thank him :
Thank you @akshaykumar ji for your kind contribution of ₹1 crore towards Assam flood relief. You have always shown sympathy and support during periods of crisis. As a true friend of Assam, may God shower all blessings to you to carry your glory in the global arena.

Being a big person takes a big heart and Akshay has time and again proved it with his efforts for the country. Whenever the country has faced an issue, Akshay has been one of the foremost actors to come forward and help the nation. He is truly a Khiladi off screen too.
