    The "Student of the Year" tweeted on Sunday: "Help put a girl child back in school. I've done my bit. Do yours."
     
    Along with a link, he also tweeted that in India, one girl in five is forced to drop out of school because of their menstrual cycles.
     
    The link leads to giveher5.org.
     
    It reads: "Rs 150 is all it takes to change her life. It will give her two anti-microbial and reusable Saafkins. It will keep her in school during her period. It will not let her period stop her, for an entire year."
