Sharmila Tagore and Soha Ali Khan runs for Rahul Bose's foundation
Sharmila Tagore and Soha Ali Khan will run the marathon for Rahul Bose's foundation that is into charity.
Bose feels that the Mumbai Marathon is the best community event. "Especially in the wake of the recent terror attacks 26/11 attacks," Rahul says. The actor says that this is the only occassion where differences visible in the everday life melt away and the entire city comes together in the spirit of oneness.
He says that the marathon is one event which actually does not require any personal investment from anyone but we should invest in it as its a great platform to see the different lifestyles thriving in the city come together for the support of different causes.
We should invest in it as its an enriching experience for all and sundry. Adds Sharmila,""Children are the future of India and as UNICEF'S Goodwill Ambassodor, I have pledged to speak up for the cause of children whenever and whereever it is necessary. I am perticipating inthis marathon to support HEAL, a project run by Rahul Bose's NGO - the foundation, to raise awareness for sexually abused children.
If this small effort in anyway alleviates the misery and stigma that these little children have to face, it will be worth my while."
