The COVID-19 pandemic has left many with jobs and a steady source of income. Bollywood is one of the industries hit hardest by the pandemic, as all film and TV productions had to be halted during the lockdown. Pay per day actors, background dancers, and set workers lost their main source of income and were struggling to survive during the lockdown.
Which is why many big-name actors helped out the Bollywood industry by providing relief funds and rations to the background workers. Actor Varun Dhawan is also trying to help out people during the pandemic and he recently donated money to several paparazzi who were out of jobs during the pandemic. Popular paparazzi Manav Manglani even took to Instagram to thank the actor for his generosity.
