New Delhi: Abhishek Bachchan couldn’t have asked for more. The actor will be honoured for his efforts towards creating a greener environment at a function here and Hollywood action hero Arnold Schwarzenegger will present him the award.

Schwarzenegger, also the former governor of California, will be in the capital Thursday to be a part of 12th Delhi Sustainable Development Summit presided over by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.

The Hollywood star will present Abhishek with Green Globe for Outstanding Efforts by a Celebrity award at Green Globe Foundation Awards Ceremony to be held at the Taj Palace.
