Ashton Kutcher is Demi Moore's husband; he is also a Hollywood actor with movies such as "Just Married" and "What Happens in Vegas" to his credits. But his other claim to fame is the Twitter following.
But it appears one title has been taken away from him with pop princess and troubled star, Britney Spears, beating him.
Kutcher was first earmarked when Sachin Tendulkar was propelled to join the social networking site. Now it appears while the U.S. stars battle for top spot, Tendulkar has decided to spend his time on Twitter for a worthy cause. And how!
Tendulkar's tweet a couple of days back for the project "Crusade against Cancer Foundation" for which Sachin is believed to have caused a huge impetus from donors who generously opened their purses as the campaign has now collected over Rs. 1.25 crores even as Sachin Tendulkar called it as "the most satisfying contribution of my life."
Sachin added, "Every child is precious and bringing the smile back to the child and lighting a new life is the most satisfying thing one can dream of. I'm grateful to all the donors in every part of the country who rallied behind me in my effort to save the lives of children afflicted with cancer. This is the most satisfying contribution in my life."
