Hrithik Roshan to skip Holi celebrations for a cause

New Delhi: Actor Hrithik Roshan has decided to stay away from Holi celebrations in view of the prevailing water shortage in Maharashtra. The 39-year-old will not waste water by being part of the Holi celebrations. “Hrithik won’t be celebrating Holi as a mark of solidarity with those who are suffering from acute water shortage in Maharashtra. Instead, he will only use only a small amount of gulaal to apply a shagun tika as part of the traditional ritual,” a source said.

They will take part in the morning puja and then spend some quiet time together,” the source said. IANS
