Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan on Monday provided 25,000 PPE kits to the frontline medical staff in Maharashtra fighting to contain the novel coronavirus pandemic in the state.

Shah Rukh said everyone is united in fighting the COVID-19 pandemic.

The development comes weeks after it was announced that Shah Rukh’s NGO Meer Foundation will work with the Maharashtra and West Bengal governments for the supply of 50,000 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for healthcare professionals.

Recently, the actor, along with wife Gauri Khan, offered their four-storey personal office space for treating COVID-19 patients.

The 54-year-old superstar had earlier announced various initiatives to help the country during the crisis.

The actor has taken the help of his other companies — Kolkata Knight Riders, Red Chillies Entertainment, and Red Chillies VFX — to provide support to the central and state governments.

Shah Rukh along with Gauri and business partners — Juhi Chawla and Jay Mehta — will be contributing to the PM-CARES Fund.
