In a heartwarming act of compassion, 13-year-old Harini Sri from Tamil Nadu performed Bharatanatyam for three hours straight to raise funds for the victims of the devastating Wayanad landslides in Kerala. The young dancer’s effort was driven by her desire to support those affected by the tragic event, which claimed over 300 lives and caused extensive damage to property.

Harini donated ₹15,000 to the Chief Minister’s Distress Relief Fund (CMDRF), a sum that included her own personal savings. The donation was made during a meeting with Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, who expressed his admiration for her initiative and blessed the young girl.

The Information Public Relations Department (IPRD) of Kerala government shared Harini’s story on X, acknowledging her remarkable gesture

“A 13-year-old girl child from Tamil Nadu, Harini Sri, performed Bharatanatyam for 3 hours straight to raise funds for the Wayanad landslide to #standwithwayanad. She donated Rs 15,000, including her savings, to CMDRF.”

A video shared by the Kerala government captured the touching moment when Harini presented her donation to Chief Minister Vijayan, who blessed her with a gentle tap on the head. The footage also showcased excerpts from her Bharatanatyam performance, which served as the means to raise the much-needed funds.

The landslides that devastated Wayanad on July 30 was devastating, especially near Chooralmala and Mundakkai. The disaster has left a trail of devastation, with over 300 people killed and more others missing. A large-scale search operation is ongoing, involving survivors, victims’ relatives, and other rescue teams.

The Indian Army, after completing a ten-day-long rescue operation in the affected regions, is set to hand over the ongoing operations to the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), State Disaster Response Force (SDRF), Fire Force, and Kerala Police. Despite the Army’s departure, a maintenance team for the Bailey Bridge—temporarily constructed by the Army will remain in the area to assist with ongoing efforts.

Meanwhile, Indian Air Force helicopters continue to play a crucial role in the search and rescue operations, airlifting over 700 kg of relief materials, civilians, and Special Operations Group teams since the disaster struck.

Harini’s dedication to using her talent for the greater good serves as a beacon of hope and inspiration during these challenging times, reminding us all of the power of empathy and actions.
