Bollywood star Akshay Kumar has donated Rs 25 lacs to Padma Bhushan awardee Gurmeet Bawa’s daughter Glory. The singer was recently in news when she shared a video of her financial struggles. Talking about the actor’s help, Glory said, “It will definitely help me and my family. But I want work, and have been asking for the same. People have started reaching out to me, and hope artistes like us find something substantial to do.”

The actor commented on the same and stated, “ I got to know of this from social media. Bahot dukh hua ki Gurmeet Bawa ji, jo Punjab ki shaan thi, unke pariwar ko aaj itni financial problems hain. Maine unki beti Glory Bawa ko apni behen samajh ke ek pyaar ka gesture bheja hai. Yeh koi help nahi hai, ek Punjabi aur ek artist hone ke naate mera farz hai."

The superstar, who was the leading man of their last film  Bade Miya Chote Miyan,  had a meeting with Jackky Bhagnani and has asked for his payment to be put on hold until the entire cast and crew has been paid.

“Akshay sir met me recently to discuss this matter. Upon learning about this situation, Akshay sir didn’t hesitate to step forward and show his support for the crew. He has insisted that his payments be placed on hold until every single crew member working on our projects receive their full and final payment. We are incredibly grateful for Akshay sir’s understanding and his willingness to stand with us during this time. The movie business hinges on strong relationships and that is the spirit we strive to foster at in the industry.” Says Jackky Bhagnani - On behalf of all producers of the film.
