The entertainment industry has gathered again to do their bit for Covid-19 relief. While several have donated their time, money and social media space to the cause, Pallavi Joshi is set to host an indoor live music concert to collect funds. “Whenever the country has faced trials, we, as a society, have stepped up to help each other,” says the actor, who will be hosting singers Sonu Nigam, Talat Aziz, Pankaj Udhaas, Hariharan, Prasoon Joshi, Alka Yagnik, Papon, Daler Mehandi, Babul Supriyo, among others for the music event called Ek Saath-India Will Rise Again, on June 5.


In the face of tragedy, Joshi asserts that the film industry has always come forward to help people. “When I was a kid, I remember actors — Sunil Dutt, Balraj Sahni, Amitabh Bachchan, Dharmendra, Shashi Kapoor — everyone had take rallies on streets to collect money to help drought-affected villages. The second wave has been devastating and we want to help orphans, daily-wage workers, women widowed, migrants, refugees and everyone who has lost their means to livelihood [during the pandemic].”
