Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma, today on her 30^th birthday, decided to build an animal shelter on the outskirts of Mumbai. Sharma, in her long tweet, said, “A home for those animals that are stranded, left to fend for themselves, have to brave harsh surroundings. A home where they will be cared for, loved, protected and nurtured.”

She wrote, “Even if they aren't being treated well, they have no means of doing anything about it and that's where we have to come in as humans who stand up for all living beings. It is our responsibility. The whole purpose of being the strongest species is to look out for the welfare of those, not so strong ones around us.”

They wait for the spark in your eyes. They like to see you smile. And they absolutely LOVE to have you around. How about you show your furry buddies some love too this #Diwali2016. Have a #PAWsitive Diwali

Hey guys ! The dreadful summer heat is here . And you know it's too hot to handle. So , please take a moment to think of all the birds around your home who are suffering the heat like you and a lot more because they don't have fans & AC's like you & me . Also, they don't have constant supply of water to drink like you & I . I request you all to keep drinking water outside & around your homes & offices for the birds to drink from and help them through this blistering summer ????????????????????????

Anushka will be next seen in ‘Zero’ directed by Aanand L Rai, which also features Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif. It will hit the theatres on December 21 this year.

Thanks for inspiring us, Anushka!
