As Tamil Nadu struggling to get back to normalcy after the worst floods it
has seen in decades, actor Siddharth, who himself was one of the
victims of the rains, turned out to help the stranded people in
different parts of the city. The actor who is being hailed as a hero for
his tireless relief efforts in the state, has painted a real and gritty
picture of the devastation.
In an interview with TV channel NDTV
yesterday, the actor said he was neither an opponent nor a proponent of
this government. He said the floods were of such epic proportions that
any state government would find the rehabilitation a long and intense
process. Talking of the relief efforts in Cuddalore, he said the
situation was bad, but not as bad as the social media made it out to be.
The actor says that the information on
social media was often recirculated and therefore, fell behind the
times. Giving an example, he said, “While today, one might send a
message saying 5000 bottles of water is needed, the message will be
there six days later, when one needs not water, but dustbins to dispose
of the bottles.”
