Celebrities Responding To Flood Relief In Punjab

Punjab is facing one of its most severe flood crises in recent history, with rising waters from the Beas, Satluj, Ravi, and Ghaggar rivers displacing thousands. The disaster has sparked an outpouring of support from the entertainment and sports communities, with many celebrities contributing resources for relief and recovery.

Salman Khan’s Being Human sent 5 lifeboats to rescue the affected families. Akshay Kumar has committed Rs 5 crore, calling his contribution “seva” rather than charity. Former cricketer Harbhajan Singh has donated 10 boats to assist rescue efforts, while his wife Geeta Basra has been actively distributing supplies on the ground.

Punjabi artist and actor Ammy Virk is working to reconstruct 200 homes for displaced families, even postponing the release of his upcoming film. Singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh has adopted 10 villages in the Majha region, focusing on sustainable solutions like solar power and essential supplies for long-term rehabilitation. Sonu Sood has urged his followers to donate generously, with his sister Malvika leading on-the-ground relief activities.

What Happened In The Punjab Floods?

The floods in Punjab in 2025 began intensely in late August, between August 26 and 29, triggered by heavy rains in Himachal Pradesh and Jammu & Kashmir that caused the rivers Sutlej, Beas, Ravi, and Ghaggar to overflow. This resulted in flooding in districts such as Ferozepur, Amritsar, Gurdaspur, Pathankot, and Kapurthala, submerging farmland and homes. By August 29, more than 1,000 villages were submerged. The situation worsened in early September due to continuous rainfall and controlled releases from dams, affecting all 23 districts. This has been described as the most severe flood in Punjab since 1988.
