Bangalore: When it comes to charity, it is said that do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing. Bollywood celebs, who are actively involved in donations, follow the saying quite literally, by being tight-lipped about it. But, here is an actor, who not only disagrees with it, but also differs in his actions. Hrithik Roshan, who is known for his love for kids, donated a school bus for special children and also invited the entire media to be a part of it. Hrithik is actively involved with Dilkhush Special School for mentally challenged children in Juhu (Mumbai). Talking about his association with the school, the Bollywood heartthrob said, “Whenever I come here, I have no words, as it's the silence that takes over. People tend to do charity and remain quiet about it. However, I beg to differ as I believe one should set an example with such steps, so that others can follow them.” Hrithik, who is active on micro-blogging site Twitter, might also use it as a source to reinforce his cause further. “I don’t mind talking about it even on Twitter, but right now, I don’t get time to do so,” he concluded. Amidst stars like Salman Khan, Amitabh Bachchan and many more, who follow the ‘no discussion’ policy about charity, Hrithik comes across as someone who likes to publicise his work towards the society, in a hope that others may follow.
