Amid the recent Lok Sabha elections, superstar Shah Rukh Khan took to the public to encourage people to have their fingers inked and fully embrace the celebration of democracy.
SRK commented on X “As responsible Indian citizens we must exercise our right to vote in Maharashtra. Let’s carry out our duty as Indians and vote keeping our country’s best interests in mind. Go forth Promote, our right to Vote.”
With Phase 5 of the Maharashtra Lok Sabha elections planned on May 20, SRK's message would undoubtedly serve as a reminder to his followers.
Many of SRK's followers tweeted his speech from the hit movie "Jawan" in response to his remark regarding voting.
In the movie, Shah Rukh Khan gave a two-minute speech in which he discussed the significance of voting and the need to choose a candidate who is impartial toward caste, religion, or race.
Throughout the speech, he encouraged listeners to question political candidates, “What they will do for you in the next 5 years?
If someone in the family falls ill, what will you do for their treatment? What will you do to get me a job?”
Salman Khan, a celebrity and close friend of Shah Rukh Khan, posted a special message on his Instagram page earlier on Friday urging people to use their right to vote in the current elections.
