Kapil Nirmal bats for green

Actor Kapil Nirmal who was recently seen in the show Mangal Lakshmi, has always believed in speaking up for the right causes, and one issue that lies close to his heart is protecting and nurturing green spaces, forests, and wildlife sanctuaries. For him, change doesn’t need to start big it needs to start honestly.

“I genuinely feel we should all begin from our own homes and our surroundings. Try not to be a hypocrite do whatever you can for the cause you believe in,” he says. Kapil strongly feels that awareness and action are interconnected because awareness ultimately leads people towards taking meaningful steps.

Talking about the power of public figures, he adds, “Influencers are called influencers for a reason. They have a strong following, and it’s easier for them to amplify any social cause through their platforms.” According to Kapil, social media has its downsides, but in this case, its reach can be extremely helpful in spreading environmental awareness.

Kapil highlights concerns like deforestation and unplanned construction done in the name of development. “Because of social media, everyone has a platform now. You can raise your voice, share your views, and it does create an impact.”
