Besides Sonali, celebrities like Amitabh Bachchan, Farhan Akhtar, Shraddha Kapoor, Vidya Balan, Kiara Advani, Anushka Sharma, Meghna Gulzar, Esha Gupta, Shah Rukh Khan, Dulquer Salmaan, John Abraham, Arjun Kapoor, Ajay Devgn, Rana Daggubati have done their bit by spreading awareness and circulating helpline numbers.

In the words of my favourite author Isabel Allende, “We don’t even know how strong we are until we are forced to bring that hidden strength forward. In times of tragedy, of war, of necessity, people do amazing things. The human capacity for survival and renewal is awesome.” The outpouring of love I’ve received in the last few days has been so overwhelming… and I’m especially grateful to those of you who shared stories of your experiences in dealing with cancer, whether it was your own or of loved ones. Your stories have given me an extra dosage of strength and courage, and more importantly, the knowledge that I’m not alone. Each day comes with its own challenges and victories and so for now, I’m taking this #OneDayAtATime. The only thing I’m trying to be consistent about is maintaining a positive outlook… literally #SwitchOnTheSunshine – it’s my way of dealing with this. Sharing my journey is also part of this process… I can only hope it reminds you that all is not lost and that someone, somewhere understands what you’re going through. ?? Thank you @tomoarakawa for making this a chic transition from long to short!

With continuous downpour, almost 14 districts in Kerala have been majorly affected with approximately 324 people losing their lives due to it. The shortage of food and water has also hit the state, though the government has taken up an initiative due to help as much as they can. We also urge our readers to do a bit or two for the locales of Kerala.
