Raam Reddy, director of the 2016 Kannada film 'Thithi' that received great praise and won awards at various national and international film festivals, has donated to a cause.

The movie was released commercially across theatres in Karnataka on 6th May, and he donated the incomes of the first 10:30 am show at Sapna theatre, Bengaluru to the Multiple Sclerosis Society of India (MSSI).

"It wasn't much and I don't know the exact amount. In fact I didn't want to know. It's more symbolic for me," Raam Reddy told The News Minute. "I haven't done much. It just came from the heart at that moment."

Mr. Reddy found his inspiration during the inauguration of a photography exhibition to raise funds for multiple sclerosis. He says he also met with some senior doctors at the same event.
