Nupur
Alankar aka Halki bua
of Ghar
Ki Laxmi Betiyaan is known
for her golden heart. Nupur has been helping
the needy and today she is helping a 16
month old deaf and dumb kid by collecting
cash for his operation.
Nupur
says, “My dress designer Saba from Ek
Chabhi Hai Pados Mein , told
me about Mr. Muzammil, who needs 10 lakhs
for his child’s operation. His only son
named Mohd. Qasim is deaf and dumb by birth.
His father who is an agent with a small
time ayurvedic shop cannot afford the surgery.”
“There is a particular time-period within
which he has to get a machine transplanted
in his ears which will enable him to hear
and thus speak. This has to be done before
he turns two,” informs the actress.
She is providing a message facility to
all call centers where people can donate
money through cheques so that there is a
proper income-tax revelation. The actress
says, “Apart from call centers, I have approached
all my friends, direction and technician
unit of my shows Ek Chabhi and Betiyaan.
I have also approached two news channels.
My actor friend Sushil Parashar is the first
person to fund the cause and so far I have
collected Rs.13,000. I will also give from
my personal account.”

Qasim’s father, Muzammil says, “Qasim,
my only son suffers from bilateral deafness
by birth. We have to get his cochlea transplant
done. I have one lakh rupees from my savings
and Rs.17, 000 from a trust and for the
remaining amount I had approached Nupurji.”
Nupur sure has her heart in the right place.
And may her tribe increase.
