Adivi Sesh to start Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan Fund

Major has come as a game changing film that taught the film industry about the value of emotions, an element that had been missing in the array of action thrillers. Adivi Sesh has a big part in the success of the film because he not only wrote the script but managed to convince Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan’s parents to give them permission to make the film.

The actor has now declared that will start a fund named after the martyr for CDS and NDA aspirants who lack the financial backing. On June 8, Sesh declared, “Major is not a film, it is an emotion. After I am done with the promotions of the film, we are going to start a fund in the name of Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan for CDS (Combined Defence Services examination) and NDA (National Defence Academy) aspirants across the country. There are a lot of people in small towns and villages who don’t know how to apply. They don’t have money for textbooks. They don’t have the guidance or training institutes. We will provide that guidance and training and sometimes that funding. I am going to start the fund and will incorporate the help of some more friends as well as actors. I want to work towards establishing the legacy of Major Sandeep. He should not remain an unsung hero.”

He further called Major “the most meaningful film he has ever made.” The actor also shared how his costar Saiee Manjrekar’s father, Mahesh Manjrekar is helping him with the cause. He revealed, “Mahesh Manjrekar sir had watched the film and loved it. He is a very influential man in Maharashtra. Through Saiee’s family’s good graces, we will meet Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray ji, and we’ll be presenting this to him to flag it off. We are meeting him on the 11th.” He stated that he will also bring other celebrities from the film industry to help him with the cause. On whether he will continue making films on such unsung heroes of India, Sesh clarified, “I’ll do it my way. Not everything has to be a film. I never wanted to just make this film for the heck of it”.
