Millions of Hollywood dollars have been pledged to Ukraine in its conflict with Russia, reports international media.

As his grand-mother was from war-hit Ukraine, world’s one of the popular actor
Leonardo DiCaprio who played the main role in the highest ever popular English movie “Titanic” has donated $10 million, according to polishnews.co.uk – and it’s not just because he’s a philanthropist.

The 47-year-old star has Ukrainian roots – his grandmother, Helena, was born in Odessa in southern Ukraine, from where she moved to Germany in 1917. Leonardo, raised by his mother, Irmelin, and grandmother, was accompanied by both to the premieres of his films such as Titanic and The Man In The Iron Mask. Leonardo DiCaprio’s $10 million donation to Ukraine was revealed by the International Visegrad Fund, which promotes development in Eastern Europe.

Ukraine-born actress Mila Kunis and husband Ashton Kutcher pledged to match up to $3 million in donations, aiming to raise $30 million in total. In an update shared two days ago, Mila and Ashton revealed they were at $15 million, halfway to the goal. The funds raised will be donated to housing Ukrainian refugees, they said. Mila Kunis was born in Chernivitsi, southern Ukraine, in 1983 and moved to USA in 1991; “I have always considered myself an American, a proud American. … But today, I have never been more proud to be a Ukrainian,” she said in a video shared on Instagram. “I’ve never been more proud to be married to a Ukrainian,” Ashton Kutcher added. The couple, who famously co-starred as Jackie and Kelso on That 70s Show, married in 2015.
