A while ago we had told you about how Nana Patekar is helping out families of Maharashtra farmers who committed suicide. Along with his partner Makarand Anaspure, Patekar adopted a number of Maharashtra villages and provided monetary aid to the farmers' families. They even have an NGO, NAAM Foundation, which provides all kinds of help to the affected farmers and their families.

Nana Patekar was recently spotted helping out the widows of farmers who committed suicide, and distributing them sewing machines so that they can earn their livelihood.

The event attracted no media attention and wasn't talked about all over the internet, yet that did not deter Patekar to do his bit. A facebook user, Amit Bajpai, posted these pictures from the event, and they tell the entire tale. You can clearly see Nana consoling the women as they break into tears.

Nana Patekar has indeed managed to set up an example for the entire industry out there. You don't always need all the media attention and the limelight on you to do charity and help out those in need. He surely proves that if you have the correct intent, you can definitely make a difference in the society, with or without all the media glare.
