In the current situation where India still has to suffer from the impacts of the global pandemic COVID-19, a lot of Bollywood stars have lent their hands to many people in the country. Vivah actress Amrita Rao is not an exception as recently, she has decided not to take the rent from her tenants who are stuck at their hometowns during the national lockdown. Isn’t it a nice gesture?

For the unversed, she has received her tenants’ requests to forgo the rents for the last three months via the actress’ real estate agent. They are unable to turn back to Mumbai because of the increasing COCID-19 cases in the city.

When Amrita Rao’s mother, who takes care of her investments, informed her about the same, the actress immediately decided to agree with their offer. She would not take the rents from March to May as well as waiving off the June and July rents.

Amrita Rao said that a number of her tenants work in freelance professions such as cinematography and acting which do not have a guaranteed income monthly. Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic is an intense situation for everyone and people decided to stay safer along with their family. This situation calls for her to be an understanding person and help people in her best capacity, said Amrita.

In the meantime, she has also opted to keep on paying salaries to the household staff who have traveled back to their hometowns to stay with their families.
