India is in the throes of the second wave of Covid-19 and the fatality rate is also seeing a spike. Well, while the country is facing a crisis, on the other hand, we see several Bollywood celebrities going on vacations to Maldives and other countries. For which they have been facing criticism for posting their vacation pictures. Many celebs like Disha Patani, Shraddha Kapoor, Janhvi Kapoor, Madhuri Dixit and others went to Maldives and they shared pictures from the beach location.
Now after Shruti Haasan, actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui has blasted celebs for posting pictures from their vacation. In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, he said, “These entertainment celebrities posting vacation pictures at a time when the world is reeling under the worst recession. …Logon ke pass khana nahin hai aur aap paise phenk rahe ho. Kuch toh sharam karo (People don’t have food and you are wasting money, have some shame).”
He further said, “In logon ne Maldives ko tamasaha bana rakha hai. I don’t know what their arrangement is with the tourism industry.” Nawaz also requested that for the sake of humanity, to keep these vacations to themselves as there is suffering everywhere and Covid-19 cases are increasing.
“Have a heart. Please don’t taunt those who are suffering. As a community we entertainers in India need to grow up,” added the actor.
When Nawaz was asked if he would go on a vacay to the Maldives, Nawaz said “no”. He is at his home town Budhana with his family and that’s his Maldives.
