India celebrated Ganesh Chaturthi for the last 11 days and since Ganesh visarjan took place yesterday, it goes without saying that the beaches across the country were damn polluted. Even though the concept of Eco Friendly Ganesha has been introduced long back, people still opt for idols made of Plaster of Paris (POP) which has dangerous causes at the environment. Ganesha Chaturthi 2018: Stories & Legends About Lord Ganesh and Why His Birth Is Celebrated With Such Fanfare In India.

Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor decided to help clean Mumbai's Juhu beach to do his bit in helping clean the environment. A few photos of Shahid at Juhu beach are on social media where he is seen greeting fans as he gets out of his car. Not just Juhi beach, but several beaches in Mumbai are currently polluted and not a lot of people have actually taken the initiative to clean the mess. Not just Shahid, actors like Alia Bhatt and Dia Mirza too have supported cleanliness drives in Mumbai before. Let's hope this sets an example for all the people out there. Check out the video of Shahid on a cleanliness drive after Ganesh Visarjan in Mumbai here-

We respect and look up to Shahid after seeing this.
