The South India Artistes’ Association, also known as Nadigar Sangam, is constructing a new structure in Chennai, and actor Dhanush has contributed significantly to its construction. His kind gift of ₹1 crore places him in the league of other stars who have made contributions.

Industry watcher Ramesh Bala announced the news of Dhanush’s participation on X, formerly Twitter. He uploaded a photo of himself posing for a selfie with Karthi and accepting flowers from actor Nassar.

Ramesh penned down, “South Indian Artistes’ Association member – Actor Dhanush donated a sum of rupees 1,00,00,000/- (1Crore) from his personal fund towards the construction of New Nadigar Sangam Building.

The association’s general secretary, Vishal, thanked Vijay on X by writing, “Thank u means just two words but means a lot to a person wen he does it from his heart. Well, am talking about my favourite actor our very own #ThalapathiVijay brother for DONATING ONE CRORE towards our #SIAA #NadigarSangam building work.”

He further expressed gratitude to Kamal, “Dearest monument of Indian film industry. @ikamalhaasan sir.
