The superstars of India have opened up their purses and hearts for the survivors of the deadly landslides in Kerala’s Wayanad, which have claimed over 200 lives and caused crores in property damage. Many of the biggest stars from the Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada industries have pledged large monetary donations for the relief work with one Malayalam star leading from the front, pledging Rs 3 crore. On Saturday, Malayalam cinema veteran Mohanlal , who is also a Lieutenant Colonel in the Indian Territorial Army, reached Wayanad in his Army uniform and pledged Rs 3 crore for the rehabilitation works of the disaster-struck region.
"The devastation in Wayanad is a deep wound that will take time to heal. Every home lost and life disrupted is a personal tragedy," he wrote alongside a series of pictures from the ground on X. The actor, who reached the Army camp at Meppadi, also held a brief discussion with the officers and left for the landslide-hit zone along with others.
