It was an outstanding event that combines the enchantment of cinema with the spirit of compassion at Seasons PVR Sathyam.
Dr. Athiya Agarwal, Director of Dr Agarwals Group of Eye Hospitals said “ The funds raised from this occasion are going to enable us to perform over 40,000 life-altering corneal surgeries, bringing light back to the lives of 1.3 million Indians who have become blind from corneal disease."
"Thanks for making a direct contribution to this worthwhile effort by joining the 'Chithha' charity premiere, establishing an accelerator for turning events” said Dr. Ashvin Agarwal, Executive Director & Chief Clinical Officer of Dr Agarwals Eye Hospital.
