Tamil Nadu Capital, Chennai city is now experiencing worst than ever seen floods which hit the state in the past. Almost everything was shut down in the city. Thousands of people are affected a lot due to such huge rains. Power grids have shut, communication has been blocked, the airport is submerged, thousands have been left stranded with people moving to the terrace of their houses and apartments.

Due to the bad drainage system which overflowed caused a great damage to the people in the city and their properties. Even water seeped into the tech giant Infosys premises. In this context, people across the country are coming forward and together on social media to do something which would help the needy.

Few people involved in coordinating relief activities, helping in the rescue of people who are stranded, ensuring food and water to those who are stuck in different parts and even recharging people’s phones. Even film stars came forward to help what they can. Hero Siddharth, has been active on Twitter since last night, constantly tweeting updates about the flood in Tamil Nadu, along with R. Balaji, a radio jockey.

Many people died in their cars in the Bombay floods because power windows and central locking jammed. Don’t sit in broken down cars. #flood

If you are not part of relief work please stay indoors. People crowding bridges to see flood sights are a nuisance. Stay home. #TNflood

Together they’re trying to do their best to offer help, shelter and food to all those people in need. Siddharth tweeted a photo of his bathroom submerged due to water coming out of the drains saying “I am an affluent actor. This is my house. Imagine rest of Tamil Nadu”. He had given few precautions for the people not to stay inside their cars as it may result in death.

Theaters have been accommodating many affected people. It is a good initiative taken by the stars reaching out to help the common people bursting their name and fame. Actor and son of DMK leader Stalin, Udhayanidhi Stalin responded to Siddharth extending his support. The national media should actively participate in relief and use the power of their reach to ensure everyone’s safety.
