MSG announces assistance for injured stuntmen

Senior stuntman Mr. Ram Shetty, and his son Mr. Anand Shetty were present on behalf of the ailing stuntman.
Proceeds from the film to set up state-of-the-art skin bank in North India
MSG announced that both his personal proceeds and revenues generated by Hakikat Entertainment would be utilised in setting up a state-of-the-art skin bank in North India. Whilst he holds several Guinness World Records for blood donation, he has also established the world’s largest eye bank in the charitable sector. The skin bank, he added, would not only provide skin to burn and trauma patients, but also help develop a full-fledged facial transplantation program for women who have been victims of acid attacks that unfortunately are growing rampantly in the country.
Saint Insaan performs his magical melodies
On persistent demand by the audience, Saint Insaan sang portions from a few of his popular new songs that had the audiences spellbound. Several media persons who had finished with the press meet much earlier, stayed behind only due to the charisma and allure of his performance.
