Amitabh Bachchan gifts tractor for beach clean-up

Amitabh Bachchan has gifted environmentalist Afroz Shah an excavator and a tractor for cleaning up Versova beach in Mumbai.

Bachchan, who is a supporter of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Swachh Bharat Abhiyan [Clean India Campaign], on Thursday shared a series of photographs from the beach.

“The joy of gifting for a cause as noble as the one I did today is the most satisfying experience of life! Gifted an excavator and a tractor for Versova Beach clean up,” Bachchan captioned the images.

Shah shared the images too, saying it’s a gift from a “dear friend”.

“Our dear Amitabh Bachchan gifted us a Jungli excavator and tractor by Escorts Group. Today, the engines were fired by him. Love and love and love for holding our hands tight. Sir, you are a torch of light in this fight to beat pollution,” Shah tweeted.

This is not the first time a celebrity has lent his support for the beach clean up. Previously, actors like Randeep Hooda, Anushka Sharma and Dia Mirza have supported the cause.
