Sada turns from glamorous world to service! - JustTollywood.com News



The well known actress Sada seems to be empty handed these days with no offers coming her way from any of the industry. Now the heroine is looking busy with social service as recently she lent her support to ‘People for Animals’ an organization running for a noble cause.

While talking to the press, the actress says, “I’ve always had a liking for animals. But because of my time schedule, I’ve never been able to have a pet. But that doesn’t stop me from helping the strays. In fact, recently, I’d rescued a puppy in Mumbai and helped a church in adopting him. And, when shooting in Sarjapur in Karnataka for a Kannada film, I found a pup abandoned in the deep jungles.

It had no food, no company and no shelter. I got him with me to Mumbai by road and I’m making arrangements for it to get adopted. I’m also nursing a pigeon back to health after it hit itself in a window sill in my apartment.” “Earlier, I had no idea about the organizations that helped in rescuing animals. But now, I’m all set to go on a drive to protect them.” She adds
