The 54-year-old actor also said, “I want to appeal to everyone that the government is asking something, so please take it seriously and don’t spread rumours. It is a problem with everyone for a long time that they believe it will not happen to them. Anyone can get infected with the coronavirus, be it in bus, train or in market place. So why do you want to take that risk.” Sharing the video on his Instagram handle, he hashtagged the video “India fights Corona.
