As reported in Hindustan Times, the comedian-actor said, “I have been doing what I can since last year and I have been taught not to mention when you help someone. Iss haath se do toh doosre haath ko bhi pata na chale!” Adding further he narrated that he was called at Sion hospital when he entertained the interns, doctors, nurses, and other health workers. “At Sion hospital (in Mumbai), I was approached to host young interns, doctors, nurses, and other health workers. I was happy to perform in their auditorium at a program for the new entrants. Other doctors sang songs, the dean gave a motivational speech about changing times and pressure on the medical fraternity,” said Ali.

Explaining how doctors who are working round the clock in this pandemic, don’t have any stress-relieving outlet and hence the actor felt his act was a contribution towards them. “I felt like it was my contribution during this pandemic. I did something for my country as everything else is for one’s self. Doctors don’t have any stress reliving outlet as they are working non-stop helping people, away from their families and not to mention feeling overwhelmed due to the situation,” Ali said.
