Discussed his donation details during KBC 10 season official launch
After helping the flood victims in Kerala with 51 lakh rupees, Amitabh Bachchan has now extended his hand to help the families of the farmers and martyrs. In the first press conference of 'Kaun Banega Crorepati', Amitabh Bachchan said in the press conference that Rs 1.25 crore will be donated to farmers immersed in debt.
Amitabh told the reason behind these donations that a year ago he was shooting in Vizag in Andhra Pradesh. Then he found that the farmers were committing suicides due to the debt. He was shocked to know that farmers are committing suicide for only 30-40 thousand rupees. Then he decided to repay loan for 50 farmer’s families. Now Amitabh is paying a loan of 200 farm families to 1.25 crore rupees.
