Like other celebrities, this filmmaker too will be donating the money he earns through the game show to HK Savla who has dedicated his life to cancer patients. Amitabh, who was thrilled with this noble act, was all praises for Basu, who himself has overcome a life-threatening disease.

He appreciated Anurag’s courage and motivation and recalled the time when he was diagnosed with a certain kind of blood cancer way back in 2004. These reports suggest that the director was working on the Emraan Hashmi, Dia Mirza film Tumsa Nahin Dekha when he came across this news. Despite the fact that the doctors had already given an ultimatum of a few months to the filmmaker, Basu never gave up. He bravely fought back cancer and has emerged victorious. According to him, if we treat cancer as any other disease and not as the end of your life, then one can fight back the disease successfully.
