Karan Johar Helps Maheka Mirpuri Raise Over 1 Crore In 2 hours For Tata Memorial Hospital

Karan Johar attended the Maheka Mirpuri's celebration of the 10th edition of the MCan Charity Gala at the Hotel Taj Mahal Palace on Wednesday. Johar helped Mirpuri raise over Rs. 1 crore in the span of two hours for Tata Memorial Hospital, which will be used for the treatment of head and neck cancer patients."To me, this endeavour has been even more massive and emotional. In my life, personally, I lost my father to cancer and from then on, in my own way I have tried to silently support the cause. But today, when I have seen what Maheka has been doing for the last decade, it moves my heart to know that MCan is not just a movement, it is a phenomenon. It was amazing to see the goodwill of Maheka Mirpuri and the goodness in the room where people were so giving," said an emotional Karan Johar as he raised more than a crore to support head and neck cancer patients, to help them get their voice boxes through Maheka Mirpuri’s MCan Foundation for Tata Memorial Hospital.Thanking Karan Johar, Maheka said, "What you have done for Tata Memorial tonight is something that I will forever be indebted to you for, because when support comes from such people in power, and people have generously donated, it adds more power to the cause."Besides Maheka Mirpuri and Karan Johar, the others who attended the event were Madhoo Shah, Rakshanda Khan, Poonam Dhillon, Bhagyashree, Sanjay Kapoor, Iqbal Singh Chahal, Kiran Joneja, Ramesh Sippy, Sagar Chordia, Gaurav Ghai, Harinder Singh, Tehseen Poonawalla, Ashok Wadhwa, Parvez Damania, Jaya Raheja, Suchitra Krishnamurti, and Karan Gupta among many others.
