Some of the most loved actors from the Indian film industry joined hands to help spread awareness on the need for Covid-19 vaccination. In a heartfelt video message on the social media platforms of Amazon Prime Video, the prolific actors have encouraged fellow citizens to get their Covid-19 vaccination shots at the earliest and win the fight against the pandemic. #Unite2FightCorona
The messages, delivered in Hindi, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam, is a positive step to put in place a sustained public service campaign to get onboard India's massive population with getting vaccinated. With the country being massively hit by the second wave of Covid-19 and a third wave being anticipated, the importance of getting oneself inoculated is immense. To keep your family safe and protect them is no less than a mission.
"Register yourself at cowin.gov.in for vaccination. Vaccine ki vaar, Covid ki haar!" says Manoj Bajpayee, whose recent release of The Family Man Season 2 on Prime Video has received huge popular acclaim.
