Prime Minister Narendra Modi has individually responded to members of the film and sports fraternity who have shown their support for the 'Janta Curfew' initiative which is to be implemented across India on Sunday, March 22.

PM Modi has shared the tweets of many Bollywood actors and singers and responded to them in a quirky manner by adding something relevant to either acting or singing. Netizens have hailed the Prime Minister for his efforts to curb the spread of the deadly coronavirus by creating awareness about the infectious disease and advising precautions for the same.

Hrithik Roshan's tweet seemingly reminded the Prime Minister of his popular movie Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham as he also tagged the Fiza actor's co-stars from the film including Bollywood superstars Amitabh Bachchan, Shahrukh Khan and director Karan Johar. He also shared superstar Kamal Haasan's tweet by urging netizens to listen to 'the most distinguished personalities of the country'.

Legendary Bollywood singer Shankar Mahadevan also received a shoutout for spreading an important message on the subject of coronavirus.
