Katrina Kaif’s cosmetic brand has partnered with NGOs to provide daily essentials to a village in Maharashtra

Katrina believes that people have different ways of dealing with the restlessness that has stemmed due to the lockdown, “I see this as a change. On a daily basis, I stay busy with the household chores. Other than that I workout and also watch something. I love reading and so I am doing that too. My work on my cosmetic range is still on, so I try and spend some time with the team. Apart from that I am also reading scripts, so there are ample things to keep me occupied,” she says.

Apart from supplying the daily essentials, the actor is also looking at providing employment to women. Kaif elaborates, “Through this initiative we have been providing food and proper sanitary facilities to the families of the daily wage workers. A team of eight people walks down seven hours daily to reach out to the people there; two people go to each house to distribute things. Along with this, the major focus is on women. We provide 10 meters of cloth to each woman so that they can make masks and sell on their own, we also buy it back from them at times. This not only gives them the opportunity to work, but also enables them to earn and stay physically and mentally fit during the lockdown,”
