After Riteish Deshmukh and Abhishek Bachchan, Sonakshi Sinha also decided to give the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge a try. However, she did it with a surprising new twist we could never have guessed.

The Bollywood actor chose to not waste a bucket of water and instead poured a single cube of ice on her head. She further asked the viewers to stop wasting water unnecessarily and just donate to the site.

Her video post of Facebook read: 'Nobody nominated me . But i still took the challenge . And now i nominate you ALL to do what i just did. If you've already showered, skip the ice water. If you havent, go ahead by all means. BUT please Go to www.als.org to donate.'(sic)

Kudos and a big thumbs up to Sona for her fresh and sensible thought. Let us see how the other stars react to the message in the days to come.
