Mumbai, March 23 (IANS) Star couple Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli have decided to merge their respective foundations - Anushka Sharma Foundation and Virat Kohli Foundation - to launch a joint non-profit initiative aimed at helping those in need.

With this sentiment in mind, we have decided to work together through SeVVA aiming to reach out to as many people as possible."
"SeVVA's work won't be confined to a particular issue as it will continue to strive for social good by championing humanity which is the need of the hour today."
Meanwhile, Virat will continue to provide scholarships in sports and also sponsor athletes, and Anushka will continue to be involved with animal welfare as she has over the years.
Also, the two of them, through SeVVA, will be on the lookout to aid areas of concern that benefits society at large.
Kareena Kapoor Khan believes it's impossible to be honest about someone's work in the industry as they don't take it well but it's important for stars to have people around who tell them the truth.
The actor was arrested in a case relating to alleged objectionable content against the Nehru-Gandhi family on social media and was granted bail by a court on Tuesday.
Akshay Kumar, who is currently facing wrath from people for "accidentally" liking a controversial tweet amidst protest against the Citizenship Amendment Act, was called "spineless" by a Twitter user, and filmmaker Anurag Kashyap has similar views about the "Gold" actor.
