MUMBAI: Jackie Chan along with 100 other artistes will take part in a concert next week to raise money for the relief efforts in Japan. The others include singer Hacken Lee, actor Eric Tsang and model Angelababy.
On his website Chan has said that the event was being held to raise money and praise the spirit of the Japanese people. “The earthquake in Japan was a devastating disaster and I want the Japanese people to know that my thoughts are with them,” he observed.
The four-hour concert called Love Beyond Borders 311, organised by Chan and other members of Hong Kong‘s entertainment industry, will be broadcast live from the city‘s Victoria Park on 1 April.
It is hoped the event plus a single called Do Not Give Into Heartache, recorded by participating celebrities, will raise around 40 million Hong Kong dollars ($5.1 million) for the Salvation Army‘s relief efforts in Japan.
