Stars with a Cause

Angelina and Brad, Bono, Oprah. Even Ginger Spice. Everyone these days is a humanitarian. Now even Bollywood stars are getting in on the action.

John Abraham, Preity Zinta, Amitabh Bachan, will be featured in a short video entitled “One Life, No Price”, which aims to raise awareness about human trafficking in India. Anil Kapoor, Akshay Kumar, Nana Patekar and Katrina Kaif are all also recording messages as well.

The UN is partnering with the Bollywood film industry as part of a larger concept entitled UN GIFT (Global Initiative to Fight Human Trafficking).

Unfortunately India has one of the highest rates of trafficking in South Asia. Over 100,000 women and children are forced into prostitution and slavery every year.

Thankfully these famous faces can bring the much needed attention to a very serious cause.
