Tara Sutaria & Nargis Fakhri amongst actors who were part of '#blackoutuesday'

People around the world have been taking a stand on the atrocities against the black community in the USA. There are nationwide protests across America after George Floyd, an African-American, was killed in police custody. The man died after being pinned for 9 minutes to the ground by a police officer who refused to lift his knee even though the man repeatedly complained about not being able to breathe.

In the wake of such a situation, social media users started following blackout Tuesday in support of the community. The initiative involved people putting up a completely black picture as an attempt to show their support. Have a look at the Bollywood celebrities who decided to be a part of the initiative.
