Akshay Kumar donates Rs 1 crore to rebuild a school in Kashmir, BSF shares a photo of laying the foundation stone | Hindi Movie News

Apart from his blockbuster films, Akshay Kumar is also known for his philanthropy works. While we all know how the actor came forward to lend monetary help last year during the pandemic, now the Khiladi actor has done his bit on the education front too.

The actor, who had visited Border Security Force (BSF) in Kashmir on June 17 this year, had spotted a school in a dilapidated condition there, and had expressed his wish to contribute Rs 1 crore for rebuilding it.

Check out the pictures from his visit here:

He had captioned his post, ‘Spent a memorable day with the @bsf_india bravehearts guarding the borders today. Coming here is always a humbling experience… meeting the real heroes My heart is filled with nothing but respect.’

Now, the BSF took to Twitter to share the news that the foundation stone has been laid for it. The school has been named after Akshay’s father, late Hari Om Bhatia.
