Ahead of Christmas, actor-comedian Cyrus Sahukar spread cheer, laughter and happiness at NGOs and at a hospital here.

His visit was part of English entertainment channel Comedy Central's initiative 'Spread the Cheer'.

Comedy Central hosted a laughter-inducing evening with Cyrus at Make a Wish foundation, Teach for India and Masina Hospital here. He indulged in interactive sessions with the audience and encouraged them to participate in fun activities.

Their otherwise gloomy faces cheered up for the evening.

"Children at Make a Wish Foundation and Teach For India immediately recognised Cyrus and thoroughly enjoyed the various activities that were lined up for them, such as caterpillar Walk, a balloon popping game called Burst them all," said a source.
