Actor and filmmaker, Farhan Akhtar recently took to his Twitter page to urge his fans to stay indoors and stay safe amid the ongoing pandemic. The country has gone through the second wave of the virus and the government is doing all that it can to curb the chain of the virus by imposing strict restrictions, curfews and lockdowns. Taking to Twitter, the actor wrote, just because there are political rallies and religious gatherings. He said it was important to not fall prey to "peer pressure".
"People asking why should we stay in when political rallies and religious gatherings are going on should remember the schoolyard argument re peer pressure ‘just because someone jumps off a cliff ...' #StayHome #staysafe."Section 144 has been imposed in the state of Maharashtra owing to the Covid outbreak, barring groups of more than five people in public. On the work front, the actor will soon be seen in the film "Toofan".
