Harssh A Singh says, ‘We all need to make sure that our planet survives’!
#MumbaiDiaries actor #HarsshASingh is all for supporting the cause related to education. “I support education the most. Education and learning are among the most important things for the future of our human race. Educated children in the future will make the right decisions for the future of our planet. I also support ecological issues. We all need to make sure that our planet survives, all the other issues will become redundant if we don’t do something about that,” he said.
He feels that when a celebrity supports a cause, it gets more attention from the public. “But I also believe that just supporting a cause is not enough. Activism is not action,” he said.
Asked if supporting a campaign or cause gives him personal satisfaction, he said, “Not really. I believe that if you care enough, you must do something beyond just talking about it. I completely understand if you are busy working towards improving your own life and you’re not involved in any causes, that’s fine. Charity begins at home. Make your own life better, be a better and more responsible person. That will do the world a lot more good than empty activism.”
During the pandemic, he paid his maids and house help full salaries for both the lockdowns even if they were not working most of the days.
“During the lockdowns, I also prepared and served morning tea to the entire security team in our society. You must learn to help and support the people around you before you talk about supporting and changing the world,” he said.
