Actor Nana Patekar's efforts to help drought-hit farmers of Maharashtra have began on a brilliant note, with his Naam Foundation collecting Rs.80 lakh in a day.
"We have set up an account for Naam Foundation and in a day nearly Rs.80 lakh was collected. It's not true that people are not willing to help those affected, it's just that they're not assured if their money goes to the right place or not. But now they have faith in us that we're doing an honest work," said Patekar, while celebrating Ganesh festival at his home.
