R Madhavan starts farming in Tamilnadu, turns his barren land into a profitable coconut business

Indian actor R Madhavan has done something great which every Indian after knowing this will be really proud of him. While his contemporaries were busy cooking, sweeping and mopping the floor during the pandemic, Madhavan is still caring and protecting the environment ever so well.

He has so much love for mother nature that he expressed it by turning a barren piece of land into a coconut farm, fetching marvellous results.

Madhavan and his brother Subayogan started their eco-friendly project earlier this year when they came across a barren land in a Tamil Nadu village. Thanks to their efforts, the land has gradually been restored and birdlife as well as greenery is back in the region.

Madhavan told Mumbai Mirror, “It was wonderful to see the land rejuvenated and yield what it was meant to in the first place. From preparing the land with the right mulch to putting the right kind of fish in the well— every bit of learning has been priceless and so worth it”.

During the lockdown, Madhavan also gave fans a sneak peek into his beautiful terrace garden. “Mumbai terrace has a new fruit,” he wrote alongside a video that he posted earlier this year.

“It has been one of the most satisfying and rewarding experiences of our lives. It was wonderful to see the land rejuvenated and yield it was meant to be in the first place. From preparing the land with right mulch to putting the right fish in the well every bit of learning has been priceless and so worth it. We will be replicating this on other locations around India and the world,” he told ANI.

The 3 Idiots stars rejuvenated the exhausted and barren soil using modern, organic, and ancient indigenous methods of agriculture. The selfless service to Mother Nature should be rewarded handsomely. Let’s make a small effort to share this article so that it would encourage other film stars to do something for the environment. Words are not enough to describe him and once again well done for the wonderful commitment to a good cause close to his heart.
