When it comes to giving back to society, actor Akshay Kumar is a frequent contributor. He recently donated Rs 1 crore to the reconstruction of a school in Kashmir. He was present in the virtual ceremony for laying the school’s foundation.

He also shared pictures and wrote, “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.”
