It was announced earlier that IAS officer Abhishek Singh, currently posted as Deputy Commissioner in Delhi, will be making his acting debut in Delhi Crime season 2.
Now, the administrator-turned-actor has extended his support to the unit during the lockdown. Abhishek is helping daily wage workers and actors associated with the show for the next three months. These are workers affected by the halt on production and are struggling to make ends meet.

He added, "We are taking care of all our daily wage earners and other needy members of our team for the next 3 months. Let’s #MakeAChain of taking responsibility of our knowns to #BreakTheChain of unequal impact. Humanity is a community, we Indians have cherished since childhood. #IforINDIANS."
