Mahesh Babu has been creating awareness about the Coronavirus pandemic, asking fans to stay safe, healthy and positive. He has also been constantly thanking frontliners – police, doctors and health workers for their efforts, on his social media handles.
Last month, the star had contributed 1 crore to the Chief Minister Relief Fund of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. He had also donated 25 lakhs towards the Corona Crisis Charity for the Telugu film industry workers whose livelihood has been affected owing to the national lockdown.
The actor had recently put out a one-minute video that went viral on social media. In the video, he is seen playing on the Wii with his son Gautam.
