Vishal has been in the limelight not only for emerging successfully during the recent Nadigar Sangam elections, but also for endorsing various causes like education, women’s welfare, transgender empowerment, and others, through his Devi Social and Educational Foundation. The work done by his Chennai rescue teams during the recent deluge has not only helped lakhs of humans, but also thousands of animals in Chennai and Cuddalore.
He emerged as a true hero of animal welfare when he endorsed a series of serious animal activism campaigns (‘Voice against Cattle Trafficking’ for a Coimbatore-based NGO) and took part in a hunger strike protesting the culling of stray dogs by the Kerala Government.
So, it does not come as a surprise that Vishal was chosen for the title ‘Face of Animal Activism-2015’ by People for Cattle in India (PFCI).
