Actor Akshay Kumar has proposed an idea to help the family of soldiers, who die in the battlefield.

Actor Akshay Kumar has time and again emphasised on the importance of supporting families of martyred soldiers.

Known for his philanthropic acts, the actor, through the video, has proposed the idea of developing a website or a mobile application, which will allow people to directly contribute and donate money in the bank accounts of the martyr’s family.

He said in his video message, “This idea is directly from my heart. May be it is useless or can be a big hit. We should have a mobile app or a website, which connects the family members of a martyr soldier with someone who want to donate money. If a soldier of the Indian Armed forces dies on duty, then a verified account number of his family member would reflect on that site the very next day. It will also show the financial status of the soldier’s family.”

“You guys can tell me what you think about this idea. If you guys are with me, then with the permission of the Indian Armed Forces, I myself will anchor this mobile application and website,” he said.

In the same video, the actor thanked his fans for supporting him in his previous video, where he talked about respecting women.
