Khandwani also posted a video from Kumar's visit to the iconic shrine, where he prayed and also offered a chaddar.

"Bollywood Super Star Padmashri @akshaykumar generously took the responsibility for a section of the renovation expenses, amounting to ₹1,21,00,000/- for the renovation work underway of Haji Ali Dargah.

"It was my honor as Managing Trustee with my entire team to welcomed the philanthropist. Duaa for his Late parents and the entire nation were made," Khandwani posted.
