Anushka cares about the environment, and has done her bit for Swachh Bharat.
Sharing this picture, she writes, 'Our country is our mother and to keep our country clean is our duty. Everyday we do things for ourselves, just a little bit of awareness and consciousness in keeping our surroundings clean will enable us to live in a healthy environment and we all know health is everything.'
'Today I went on a cleanliness drive to Versova Beach with my friends and family and in reality, the pleasure I felt in cleaning the beach is indescribable.... In Mahatma Gandhiji's words ... "An ounce of practice is worth more than tons of preaching" .... So please do your bit.'
