The main purpose of Meer foundation is to enable, enhance and encourage - empower women by making them feel appreciated and inspired, and to foster humility, pride and gallantry among the men in their lives.

The superstar is not just known for his acting and performances, but also for his philanthropic work.

On the work front, the star is yet to announce his next project after the performance of 'Zero' at the box office, last December.

Meer Foundation's new website acts as an information portal for all those directly or indirectly affected by acid attacks while also providing information about the foundation to anyone who would like to understand and support the cause. The website is available in both, Hindi and English. The portal also looks like a step towards a larger national policy discussion in the near future and a positive addition to the grave issue that it addresses.
