Alia Bhatt starts denim donation drive in 20 cities in India!

Actress Alia Bhatt is a hardcore animal lover. Her love for her pet cat Edward is known to her fans especially to her Instagram followers as the actress keeps posting fun pictures and stories with her cat regularly. The young actress is using her star power in right strides. She has started an initiative for animals titled “Co-Exist”! As a part of it, the young lady has started a denim donation drive across 20 cities in India where people can participate and donate used denim which will be used to make dog collars. She even revealed that she is taking a day off just to see her cat!

In a media interaction with a leading daily, Alia Bhatt said, “I have always wanted to mix fashion with a good cause. Fashion is very relatable and is something that I also understand well. I feel the same goes for other people too, who can also relate to it. Plus, donation is something that people are extremely kind-hearted about. But I have realized that when you make donations in kind, the response is always higher. Plus, for animals, donations in kind are very effective. And in this case, it’s Motopaws denim donation drive.”

“Everyone has a closet full of denims and after a point, either they don’t fit you or you don’t like them anymore. So, instead of throwing them away, you can donate them so that dog collars can be made out of them,” the actress added.

She revealed that she will fly back to Mumbai just for one day to see her cat! Alia said, “You know, I will be back in Mumbai only by the end of September [after wrapping up the shoot]. But, in between, and not many would believe that, but I will be travelling to the city just to see my cat (Edward) so that I am assured that he hasn’t forgotten me (laughs). So, after we finish the schedule in Patiala, I have a couple of days in hand before I reach Kashmir, Jammu & Kashmir [for another schedule]. So, I will come to Mumbai; spend a day with my cat and the next day, I will fly to Kashmir.
