Mumbai, Aug 13 - It's two women from illustrious backgrounds out to do a good deed. When actress-social activist Shabana Azmi had to invite someone to hand over the keys of homes of a large rehabilitation project, she didn't have to think twice - she called MP Priya Dutt.

'This was the fourth phase of our housing scheme. It is the largest rehabilitation project in Asia. And we requested Priya Dutt to hand over the keys. It was quite touching to see us two daughters carrying on the legacy of our fathers,' Shabana told IANS.

Shabana chose Priya for this occasion because of their mutual commitment to social welfare.

'My NGO Nivara Hakk has given 12,000 homes for free to slum dwellers ousted from Borivali National Park. It's tripartite pact among the government of Maharashtra, the private builder Sumer Corporation and Nivara Hakk,' Shabana said.

'And it was very nice to have Priya along. She is the MP of the area and shares our vision of what needs to be done for the upgradation of slums.
