 Amitabh Bachchan is not only a great actor but also a man with golden heart and her has proved it many times. Now, the actor has fulfilled a promise he made to help manual scavengers by arranging machines.  Amitabh took to Twitter and wrote "At the NDTV Cleanathon 'Banega Swachh India', seeing the inhuman plight of the manual scavenger, I had committed to buy 50 machines for them. Today I fulfilled that promise! 25 small individual machines and one large truck machine gifted to BMC.

In a letter dated November 24, and addressed to the Manual Scavengers Association (MSA) and the BrihanMumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), the Pink actor said that he wanted to do something to prevent manual scavengers from physically and manually going down the manholes and sewer drainages.

Donating machines, Megastar said that  His contribution was to prevent the dehumanising work of these scavengers and to give them the respect and dignity in society. The actor had committed Rs 50 lakh towards purchase of machines for the workers.

On the workfront, Amitabh Bachchan was seen last in the Thugs of Hindostan where he played the part of Khuda Baksh. The film failed to do well at box office but he got praised for his work in the film.
