Following the floods that rocked the state of Kerala, the Chief Minister’s Distress Relief Fund has seen a lot of generous contributions from people belonging to various stratas of the society. Commoners, bureaucrats, film personalities, sportspersons, businessmen and many others have donated to the relief fund to help better the lives of those affected by the disastrous floods.

Yesteryear movie actors from across the country have now done their part by contributing Rs 40 lakh to the relief. The 80s stars group consists of both male and female actors, mostly from the South. Representing the group, actors Suhasini Mani Ratnam, Lissi and Khusbhu Sundar met state CM Pinarayi Vijayan to hand over the cheque. The fund was together raised by Mani Ratnam, Jackie Shroff, Poornima Bhagyaraj, Sundar, Rajkumar Sethupathi, Saritha, Jayasudha, Avani Cinemax, Casino Majong Foundation, Malta Honorary Counsel Santhakumar and Mauritius Honorary Counsel Raviraman.

Most of the above mentioned actors have worked in Malayalam cinema and share a close bond with Kerala and its people. Doing their share for the lakhs affected by floods is indeed a kind gesture.
