Akshay Kumar lashes out at travellers for not practicing home quarantine; says, “Coronavirus chutti pe nahi hai”

COVID-19 pandemic has taken the world by storm and while everyone is advised to practice social-distancing and self-quarantine, there are people who are taking these instructions and precaution measures lightly. Akshay Kumar recently shared a video message in which he slammed people especially travellers for not practising social distancing or self-quarantine.

Advocating the need for social distancing amidst the outbreak of Coronavirus, Akshay shared a video in which he slammed people’s mentality of not taking the situation seriously and thereby endangering everyone’s lives.

In his video message, Akshay can be heard saying, “People who have returned from travel at Mumbai airport are tested for Coronavirus and are stamped and sent for quarantine to their homes or hotel. But believe it or not, despite being stamped for home-quarantine, some of these people are not only roaming in the city but also visiting various locations in the country. They are going to weddings, on holidays, going to crowded places, partying. What kind of mentality is this?”

For the first time in life, the winner will be the one who will stay put! This is a race, one which will save us…Say yes to #SocialDistancing please ?? #BreakCorona #TogetherAtHome @mybmc pic.twitter.com/fPIW8UvW13

He further added, “This will be the first race in the world where the one who stops will win and help others win. BMC’s stamp is a badge of honour because you are not only securing yourself but saving many other lives. So please be careful and act accordingly.”

He ended his message by saying “Jaan Hai toh Jahaan hai”(If there is life there is the world). 

The number of positive Covid-19 cases are increasing rapidly in India. Recently singer Kanika Kapoor also tested positive. However, there were reports that she didn’t practice social-distancing upon her return from London. While her father, Rajiv Kapoor claimed that she attended a few parties, however, she denied partying at all. Soon the singer was slammed by netizens for not acting wisely and practising self-isolation despite knowing the gravity of the current scenario.
