Aamir Khan in Pune
New Delhi:
Superstar Aamir Khan recently dropped by at the Symbiosis International in Pune to invite students to join his latest initiative to fight drought in Maharashtra. During his visit, Aamir urged the students to volunteer for 'Shramdaan' an initiative that will enable the registered folks to participate in watershed management work carried in out in the rural areas of Maharashtra on May 1. After having shared the details of his campaign, Aamir Khan took permission from the founder of the prestigious institution to stick posters on the college wall and boards and did so with full dedication. Both Aamir Khan and his wife Kiran Rao own Paani Foundation - a non-profit body which operates to improve water scarcity in the rural parts of Mumbai.
