  • Celebrity-led aid expanded as Diljit Dosanjh’s Saanjh Foundation adopted ten villages, Ammy Virk pledged to rebuild 200 homes, and Sonu Sood launched assistance for families.
  • Further support includes Gurdas Maan’s Rs 25 lakh contribution to the CM Relief Fund, Karan Aujla arranging motorboats, Gippy Grewal sending silage for cattle, and the postponement of Shehnaaz Gill’s film release.
