After helping migrant workers return to their hometowns last year and helping numerous other people, he has been leading a fight against the shortage of oxygen supply, hospital beds and medicines during the second wave of the coronavirus. As part of his recent initiatives, the actor is all set to install oxygen plants in Andhra Pradesh.
