B-Town Buzz: Kajol reveals her favourite books; Manushi Chhillar roped in by UNICEF

Kajol

On Friday, to mark World Book Day, Kajol reiterated that her "love for reading is eternal." The actor is often seen with a book in her hand on the sets. American author Sarah J Maas is her favourite. "She is brilliant and whatever she writes connects with you. I have read almost all of her work, but if you ask the most favourite, then it is Crescent City and The Throne of Glass," says the actor.

Shots for kids

Manushi Chhillar, who will be seen opposite Akshay Kumar in Prithviraj, has been roped in by UNICEF to raise awareness about childhood immunisation in the country. The beauty pageant winner will spread the message during World Immunisation Week, which begins today. Chhillar says, "Vaccines have helped generations of children grow up in good health, safe from infectious and dangerous diseases like polio and measles. To save lives, we must redouble our efforts to vaccinate children -- particularly the most vulnerable. We must not let Covid-19 disrupt children's access to life-saving childhood vaccines."

She noted that vaccines will help protect children from the most devastating impacts of infectious diseases. "As we wait for #covid19 vaccines to roll out more widely, let's remember to vaccinate our children against other highly contagious diseases which remain a serious threat to their lives," she adds. Manushi's focus right now is on kickstarting her career in Bollywood. She is scheduled to make her debut opposite Akshay Kumar in the historical drama "Prithviraj". She also has an untitled project coming up with Vicky Kaushal.
