The actor along with her parents, Kulwinder Singh and Rajender, is sending packets of home-cooked food to them. "My dad figured this entire slum where people are completely out of their basics. We are facilitating two meals a day for all those people and we have decided to do it till the time the lockdown is in place. If the lockdown gets pushed further, I will keep doing that. For now, I have committed till April and then we will see depending on the situation. The food would be cooked at a place in my society and will be sent out to those people," Rakul said. 

The actor said that everyone should be doing their bit, especially during this time. "It is very important to understand that many of us are privileged. We have a house, help, food, ability to stack up in case of emergency but this is when you give it to society. For me, nothing can give me more happiness than the smiles on these people’s faces when they will eat their meal. And that will make me extremely happy,. So that’s my way of expressing my gratitude for everything I have and it is a very small effort. Whoever can make a difference should, because I truly believe in giving back to society."
