“Looking after the welfare of animals is a cause very close to my heart now as Anushka is very passionate about this issue. Her vision to help stray animals across India is truly inspiring for me and since I have met her, I have tried to understand more about animal rights and the urgent need for medical assistance for strays,” Kohli said.
He felt it is the couple’s dream to help stray animals. “It is our dream to create a safer space for the stray animals of our city and I’m happy to be taking on this project to create some facilities to help these animals,” remarked Kohli.
