The Central & State Governments are doing their absolute best to curb the spreading of the COVID-19 Corona Virus and also simultaneously provide relief to all those affected by this pandemic! Most of the country has gone into lockdown mode and though this is the most effective way to avoid the Virus from spreading, this also affects the livelihood of daily wage workers. Most of the technicians in the film industries earn their wages on a day-to-day shoot basis and with all shooting being suspended across the country, these technicians and their families are highly affected. Almost all the top Tollywood stars have been contributing huge sums towards the relief efforts of the Andhra Pradesh & Telanga Chief Ministers Funds as well as for the Telugu Film Industry (TFI) workers!

In the last couple of days, actors like Pawan Kalyan, Chiranjeevi, Ram Charan, Mahesh Babu & Nithiin among others, contributed heavily for the relief efforts and now both Jr. NTR & Prabhas have come forward and pitched in their part! We hear that Prabhas has donated Rs. 4 Crore towards the relief efforts while Jr. NTR has put in Rs. 75 Lakhs for the same. A tweet by producer & distributor Mahesh S Koneru, reveals that Jr. NTR has decided to divide his contribution as Rs. 50 Lakhs towards the Chief Minister Funds of Andhra Pradesh & Telangana, while the remaining Rs. 25 Lakhs is to be given towards the welfare of the TFI workers! This is great news indeed and with so many top celebrities of Tollywood coming forward, it would definitely be of great help for the relief efforts!
