Megastar Chiranjeevi recently also launched a Covid-19 vaccination drive for members of the Telugu film fraternity.

Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan initiate Covid-19 relief measures in Telugu states.

The short supply of medical oxygen has led to the death of several Covid-19 patients in the second wave of the pandemic. To alleviate the shortage of medical oxygen, Telugu megastar Chiranjeevi and his son Ram Charan will soon launch ‘oxygen banks’ across Telugu states.

The father-son duo has enlisted the services of their fan clubs in each district of the Telugu states to monitor the adequate supply of oxygen to people in need. Ram Charan will oversee this operation.
