Nupur
Alankar who essays the role of Halki Bua
in Zee’a Ghar
Ki Laxmi-Betiyaan is one
actress who has her heart in the right place.
Nupur believes in helping people in need
and does a lot of charity. It is reported
that Arzoo Khan who is a body double for
Aishwarya Narkar (mother of the four daughters
in the serial) and Twinkle Bajpai (Laxmi
in Zee’s Betiyaan) is suffering from
uterus cancer. She required an amount of
1.5 lakhs for the operation. When Nupur
heard this she decided to do something to
help Arzoo.
Nupur says, “Arzoo who is a body double
for many artists like Aishwarya Narkar,
Twinkle
Bajpai from Betiyaan and
Jaya Bhattacharya from Dulhann had
a severe stomach ache on the sets of Betiyaan.
I am into acupressure and pranayams, so
everybody from the sets suggested to her
to come to me. I gave her the medicine and
advised her to go for a thorough check-up.”
“After a month I happened to go to the
sets of Dulhann and I came to know
that Arzoo suffered from stomach ache almost
all the time. Later Arzoo got operated for
appendix and kidney stone as well. It was
during that time that her mother died of
heart-attack so her personal life was in
jeopardy,” adds Nupur.
Nupur continues, “Actually Arzoo fainted
on the sets yesterday and we got real worried
about her. I asked her to go to the doctor
again and she was diagnosed of uterus cancer
and she needs to get operated immediately.
She needs rupees one lakh fifty thousand
for the operation. She has arranged one
lakh so far but she needs fifty thousand
more so the entire cast has decided to help
her with the money.”
Earlier too Nupur has helped an artist
in distress. She recalls, “There was this
senior artist Rachna Sahni whose sister
Sapna Mittal had a hole in her heart and
needed an immediate surgery. She wanted
five lakhs for the surgery. So we appealed
to all the artists for their help. Rakhi
Sawant gave sixty thousand rupees.
Even actors like Jackie Shroff and Shahrukh
Khan helped her and she was successfully
operated upon.”
Keep up the good work Nupur!!
