The entertainment industry has collectively rallied behind Punjab in this time of crisis. Bollywood stars such as Shah Rukh Khan, Sanjay Dutt, Sunny Deol, Shilpa Shetty, Vicky Kaushal, Bhumi Pednekar, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and Alia Bhatt have all voiced solidarity, with Alia also sharing donation links to mobilize support.
Sonu Sood launched a helpline and pledged full assistance, while Diljit Dosanjh adopted ten villages and Ammy Virk committed to rebuilding 200 homes. Punjabi stars including Sonam Bajwa, Gippy Grewal, Satinder Sartaaj, and Karan Aujla have also stepped in with relief measures, underlining the entertainment community’s united response.
According to government data, the devastating floods have so far claimed 29 lives. Rivers such as the Ravi, Beas, and Sutlej have breached their banks after relentless rainfall in Himachal Pradesh and Jammu and Kashmir, worsening the situation downstream.
The destruction has been widespread, submerging more than 1,655 villages across 12 districts. Gurdaspur remains the most severely affected, with flooding reported in 324 villages, while Amritsar, Ferozepur, Hoshiarpur, Kapurthala, and Sangrur are also among the districts reeling under water.
With volunteers, NGOs, and celebrities stepping in, relief efforts continue across Punjab to provide immediate aid and long-term rehabilitation to affected families.
