With an aim to honour the efforts of healthcare professionals and frontline workers during the Covid-19 pandemic, Metropolis had conceived the ‘Healthcare Heroes of India Awards’ as one of its CSR programs in the year 2021.

This short CSR film is all about the contribution of those individuals and institutions, who were the winners of the last year.

This film brings to light the selfless contributions of countless healthcare professionals who went beyond their call of duty to curb the pandemic. Story Filter (A creative agency with expertise in crafting powerful, purpose-driven stories) has supported Metropolis in developing this short film which gives a glimpse into the higher purpose of Metropolis, that is to uphold empathy, commitment, and compassion.
