Pappu Sardar, the well-known fan of the Bollywood heartthrob Madhuri Dixit's is all set to celebrate his idol's birthday in a special way on May 15.
Taking onus on himself to spread message of water conservation, Pappu has decided to distribute 700 earthen pots filled with water to educate people to conserve water. On the occasion of Madhuri’s birthday on May 15 he will educate people on importance of water conservation at his famous chaat shop in Sakchi.
As part of the celebration he has also decided to distribute educational materials likes pencils, notebooks among less privileged students of Government schools. Moreover, like previous years this year too, he will distribute ‘chaat’, ice creams and soft drinks free of cost to the people who will cross through his shop.
“I have made arrangements for ‘puja’, which would be performed at the midnight on the eve of her birthday. At 12 midnight we will cut cake start the celebrations,” conceded Pappu. Pappu has been celebrating Dixit's birthday since 1996. His dedication to the star has no limits. Earlier his neighbours used to consider him crazy, but now they eagerly wait for the annual event, and wholeheartedly join in the revelries.
like thousands of others, Pappu Sardar idolises Bollywood actor Madhuri Dixit. But he is a unique member of her fan club in that he has taken it upon himself to reach out to those in need while dedicating the service to her.
Asked about reason behind his madness for Madhuri, his wife Maninder Kaur says, “ I am really happy because the way his popularity has grown up. He has carried several philanthropic works in her name. He draws inspiration from whatever she does and that’s the best part.”
The popularity of Pappu Sardar, seems to be crossing international boundaries too. An evidence of his growing popularity was given by the book ‘Public Hinduism’, a book written by journalist Shalini Kakkad.
The book mentions how Pappu worships Madhuri Dixit on her birthday every year and distributes sweets among the people of the city. The devotion of Pappu for Madhuri finds detailed mention in the book. The book also speaks on other types of devotion.
