On World Thalassemia Day, B-town celebs chose an exclusive way to craft consciousness on thalassemia, an inborn blood disorder, urging people to get tested and save their children from ‘half-life’.
Sharing pictures of half of their faces, several actors shared a common message with the hashtag #AdhiwaliZindagiMitao.
The post read: ‘Did you know that when both husband and wife have Thalassemia Minor, there is a 25% chance that their child will have Thalassemia Major and reduced life expectancy?’
‘Today, on #WorldThalassemiaDay, by posting this picture of half my face, I am supporting the #AadhiwaliZindagiMitao movement to remind everyone to get tested for Thalassemia and prevent giving their child half a life. Visit www.thewishingfactory.org or call 844-844-9544 to schedule a Thalassemia test and to donate to help patients,’ it further read.
To gather bigger support, the actors also tagged fellow actors at the end of their posts.
