Recently, Salman Khan donated 2, 500 water tanks for Maharashtra's drought affected areas. Are other Bollywood celebrities following suit, or just content with paying lip service? Itee Sharma finds out

Kalki Koechlin
I've lived in Kalhatty, and we got little water in the summers. I was allowed only one bucket of water for my bath and the bath water was saved to flush the toilet. I do not leave a tap running when brushing my teeth.

Arjun Kapoor

You shouldn't shower thrice a day. A drought anywhere in this country will affect us directly, too. I save water and electricity because it is one way of creating a great future for everyone.

Shekhar Kapur

My next project, Paani, is based in the grim future with scant water. I am really surprised at the amount of water wasted through bottled water. We used to carry water from home as kids.

Manoj Kumar

My workers swab our floors on alternate days, and we water the plants only when required. Nobody in my family wasted water during Holi this year; we played dry Holi.

Dibakar Banerjee

This is not the first time that 16 states are facing hardship. Farmers have been committing suicides since eight years. You have to look at water harvesting now.

Arshad Warsi

I wear my clothes twice before I wash them. I wanted my new house to be equipped with rain water harvesting and solar energy, but I am waiting for requisite permissions since two years.
