The ‘I for India’ live fundraiser concert on Facebook to benefit the coronavirus relief yesterday was big and the purpose of getting people to donate was met. A lot of artists Indian and International were associated with this and each one of them had some of the sweetest things to say. They also gave some memorable performances that will stay etched on our hearts for a long time. From Priyanka Chopra Jonas to Ayushmann Khurrana, Ranveer Singh to Parineeti Chopra, SRK to AR Rahman, trust us, what we witnessed yesterday was impeccable!

Along with putting up some amazing musical performances, we heard some of the nicest things that people had to say about our country. Some of them being:

“So happy to be a small part of #IForIndia- India’s biggest fundraising concert,” Priyanka Chopra

“India holds a really warm and special spot in my heart, it’s really like a home away from home for me.” Will Smith

“Sab Sahi ho jaayega” Shahrukh Khan

With SO many people involved and sharing a common goal, how can India not win? <3

Corona se mar sakte hain par bhook se kabhi nahi. Yeh awaaz tv par chalte Majdoor ki aasaani se dabi nahi. Socha tha insaaniyat ekjut ho jaayegi kyunki jaan hai toh jahaan hai America ne kaha cheen le kar aaya, Kuch ne kaha yaha Bharat mein super spreader musalmaan hai. Middle East kehta hai unka career Shia hai Iran hai. Corona bhi kehta hoga humans really deserve to perish kitna paagal insaan hai. I think to really come together we are waiting for an alien attack. Usko bhi hum ek doosre pe daal denge, trust me we have that knack. Jab aasmaan se asteroid girega woh bhi nahi sochega ki kisi bungle pe giroon ya slums pe. Kisi shankar pe giroon ya shams pe. Arey bande ab toh samajh ja, tu Bhagwaan nahi, Nabi nahi. Corona se mar sakte hain par bhook se kabhi nahi. Yeh awaaz tv par chalte us majdoor ki aasaani se dabi nahi. Corona se mar sakte hain par bhook se kabhi nahi. #IforIndia @give_india

Currently, India is battling over 42,000 Covid-19 cases and we hope that we as a country overcome this situation soon and emerge victoriously!

Stay home, stay safe!
