Bollywood actor-writer-producer-director Aamir Khan is donating Rs 11-hundred-thousand to support the Mumbai Film Festival, which is facing a funds crunch for its forthcoming 16th edition this year.

"Hey guys, the Mumbai Film Festival 'MIFF' needs our help. I'm donating 11 lakh. It would be really great if all of you came forward and donated as much as you can to make it happen! Thanks. Love. a", Aamir posted on his Facebook and Twitter pages.

Aamir has joined a list of cinema lovers who have come forward to save the fest, organised annually by the Mumbai Academy of Moving Image (MAMI).

With the end of a five-year-long partnership with Anil Ambani's Reliance Entertainment, the organisers of the Film Fest have been on the lookout for a title sponsor and additional funds.
