Los Angeles: Hollywood star Jennifer Aniston has appealed to her fans on Instagram to lend a helping hand to India in its fight against the second wave of the coronavirus pandemic.

The actor, popular among the Indian audience as Rachel Green from the 1990s hit sitcom “Friends”, on Tuesday shared three posts on her Instagram Stories bringing the country’s worrying scenario amid the health crisis to the attention of her 36.5 million plus followers.
