The actor partnered with Anjaneya Seva Trust to lead the initiative of feeding monkeys in Ayodhya. Under this initiative, the ‘Khiladi’ fame star claimed that the monkeys in Ayodhya are fed clean and nutritious food daily.
Safety and hygiene are their two top priorities in of this movement. In the video, a van was seen with a trunk full of bananas. The actor also paid a tribute to his parents and father-in-law Rajesh Khanna, by having their names written on the feeding van.

Monkeys are a big problem. They prevent people from growing fruits and vegetables in open spaces as well as installing solar panels on roofs in spite of the fact that sun shine is in abundance throughout India. Besides, monkeys belog in forest and jungle, not within populated areas. I fail to understand the logic behind this feeding. Remeber: Belief without logic is misbelief. Faith w/o logic is blind faith. Any belief that cannot be defended by logic, proof or evidence is ignorance. The deepest sin against the human mind is to believe things without evidence.
