Coronavirus: Rakul Preet Singh is feeding 200 poor families living in slums, says will continue to do so till the situation is normal

Rakul Preet Singh is the latest addition to the long list of celebrities who are using their power to help the needy. During this hard time when the country is in a state of lockdown, the poor families are finding it difficult to thrive. They are not getting their day to day income and hence unable to buy necessities. This is why Bollywood actress Rakul Preet Singh has taken it on herself to feed the families of almost an entire slum. She and her family are feeding 200 poor families in Gurugram. The actress says that she will continue to do so until the situation is back to normal.

In an interview with a leading daily, she said, "My dad figured this entire slum where people are completely right now out of their basics. We are facilitating two meals a day for all those people and we have decided to do it till the time the lockdown is in place. If the lockdown gets pushed further, I will keep doing that. For now, I have committed till the month of April and then we will see depending on the situation. The food would be cooked at a place in my society and will be sent out to those people." She wrote in a tweet that the whole idea is inspired by her family. "I could not have done this without my parents' help. They are monitoring everything and it’s the least we can do."
