Vikram Spirit Of Chennai Video
The initiative from Vikram to show the spirit of Chennai with support from stars like Abhishek Bachchan, Suriya, Karthi, Nayanthara, Amala Paul, Nithya Menen, Nivin Pauly and others has got humongous response. The video elucidating the Spirit of Chennai has gone viral making Vikram feel so happy about. Below is the reaction from Vikram. Just read it.
‘The Chennai rains and resulting flood was one of the saddest and debilitating events that the world has seen or faced, leaving the city and adjoining areas helpless, stranded without food or drinking water, even loss of life in many cases. What turned the world’s attention is not the Nation’s wrath but how the city instead of crumbling and succumbing to it, rose en masse to fight back and save itself a first, for any city. This touched me and inspired me as it did a million others and the “Spirit of Chennai” was born.
An anthem and a story that speaks of the undying spirit and love that people of Chennai are capable of. It also raises a pertinent question. Does a calamity have to happen, for us to reach out to one another? When I searched for a team to make this dream come true, a thousand kindred souls came together with the same compassion that Chennai exhibited, without a moment’s hesitation. Thank you Chennai for making me believe in “Humanity” and what it’s capable of. Thank you for making me to discover the better person in me.’
