Through his Being Human foundation, he arranged for the distribution of food packets and clothing to around 1,500 people who lost their homes.

The star, who's has been shooting in Thailand for Ready, had flown into Vizag over the weekend for the Celebrity Cricket League curtain raiser event. After which he was back in Bangkok. But he kept in touch with the volunteers about the relief measures.
