After visiting Mumbai and Delhi, Hollywood actress Ashley Judd was in Jaipur for her AIDS awareness campaign.
Judd is presently in India as the Global youth AIDS ambassador. More than a week back, Judd visited Mumbai’s red light districts along with actress Sushmita Sen to spread AIDS awareness among sex workers.
A few days back Judd visited Jaipur where she was joined by actor Akshay Kumar for her campaign. Akshay, who was already in the city to shoot for Priyadarshan’s movie Bhool Bhulaiya , happily took out time to join Judd in her noble cause.
Ashley and Akshay together launched an emergency contraceptive (EC) programme, which is aimed at spreading the use of emergency contraceptives by providing easy access to such products.
Ashley said to the gathered women and men that more efforts should be made to curb high maternal mortality rate in Rajasthan.
Akshay Kumar directly addressed the women present and told them that they should not hesitate to ask their husbands to use contraceptive devices like condoms.
