Yesteryear’s actress Sahrmila Tagore and her actress daughter Soha Ali Khan will run the marathon for the actor Rahul Bose’s NGO named ‘Foundation’. This is for charity purpose.
Bose is of the view that the Mumbai marathon is the best community event especially in the wake of the recent terror attacks 26/11 attacks. Rahul says that this is the only occasion where differences visible in the everyday life melt away and the entire city comes together in the spirit of oneness. Rahul Bose tells that the marathon is the event, where we need not to invest but should invest in it as it’s a great platform to see the different lifestyles thriving in the city come together for the support of different causes.
Actress Sharmila Tagore, who is the UNICEF’s Goodwill ambassador, shares her views, “Children are the future of India and as UNICEF’S Goodwill Ambassodor. I have pledged to speak up for the cause of children whenever and wherever it is necessary. I am participating in this marathon to support HEAL, a project run by Rahul Bose’s NGO – the foundation, to raise awareness for sexually abused children.If this small effort in anyway alleviates the misery and stigma that these little children have to face, it will be worth my while”.
