In these dire circumstances, with a heavy heart, I am donating Rs. 50 lakhs to the Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister's Relief Fund and Rs. 50 lakhs to the Telangana Chief Minister's Relief Fund for the relief of the affected people. I am praying to God that normal conditions will be restored in both states very soon," the 'Akhanda' actor wrote.
He added, "The tilak that my father painted on my forehead 50 years ago is still shining. My acting career has been going on for 50 years. It has been shining.
