Bollywood actress Rani
Mukerji's noble deed of helping a dog in distress has won her an award.
Her kind deed has been recognised by animal rights organisation People
for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India.
Rani was shooting for her upcoming film "Aiyya" when she reportedly saw a stray dog being harassed by a few onlookers on the set. She rushed to help the dog by stopping them.
For this, Rani will receive a Hero to Animals Award from PETA India.
"This dog would have been terrified and suffered more abuse were it not for Rani's compassionate and quick action," said Sachin Bangera, PETA India manager of media and celebrity projects.
"We encourage everyone to stop and speak up for animals who are subjected to pain or suffering, because if you don't, maybe no one else will," he added.
Past recipients of PETA's Hero to Animals Award include actors like Zarine Khan, for rescuing a cat from the street, and Cyrus Broacha, for refusing to perform a stunt that involved riding a bull.
