&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;WEB DESK: Indian film industry is full with celebrities who are famous for their signing bold subjects and they did justice to such characters, no doubt. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However, it is less noticed that these celebs do have moral values and they don't just talk about it but respect it too.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Moreover, these well-know stars do have hefty bank accounts but not all are working only for the sake of money. Some of these actors are working while keeping morals in their mind.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And, we have found B-town celebs who turned down huge AD deals in this regard. It seems like these people are really up to live a life based on morals.&lt;/p&gt;
