Charity begins at home for Asin

Whatever her charitable activities are, actor Asin and her family maintain that they would rather be quiet about it. Asin had previously initiated an eye check-up camp in strife-torn Sri Lanka and also runs a school for the under-privileged in India.
"Asin has never really spoken about her charitable activities because she believes that these things are not an ideal way to grab headlines. So, even if she is doing something for the poor, she feels that she would rather not talk about it," says her father Joseph Thottumkal.


According to Joseph, Asin does believe in charity and turns to lend support to several organisations from time to time. "She believes in doing something for the poor and we are happy that she thinks that way. She has our full support. But we are happy about the fact that she chooses not to talk about it. It's a value that she treasures," her father adds. Asin has reportedly ear-marked a small portion of her income towards charitable causes, which is regularly sent towards the institutions that she backs.
