“Three years ago we made a small start. The dream was that if people came together and work unitedly, Maharashtra would become drought-free one day. Paani Foundation was founded.

Later, Kiran Rao also tells the audience about a special programme “Dhamaal Shaala” for children that taught them the importance of the relationship between nature and man. She also explains the working of the Paani Foundation which helps drought-hit villages by providing training and education to people. It neither accepts any monetary help for them nor do they give money to them themselves.
In one of the segments of the show, Aamir and Kiran hear letters that are brought by a postman from ‘Chala Hawa Yeu Dya’. These letters bring inspiring stories of change.
The series Toofan Aalaya will also air on Zee Marathi every Saturday at 9.30 pm. The episodes will feature the story of water cup stories.
