Actor Salman Khan is one of the latest Bollywood celebrities to react to India's ongoing protests by farmers. Going on for quite some time now, the issue garnered much attention after international music star Rihanna, and teen environment activist Greta Thunberg tweeted in support of the farmers. When asked about his opinion on the issue, Salman said, “The right thing should be done. The most correct thing should be done. The most noble thing should be done.”

A lot of Indian celebrities have posted on the topic, using the hashtags #IndiaTogether and #IndiaAgainstProgaganda. Actors including Ajay Devgn, Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Kangana Ranaut, Taapsee Pannu and Richa Chadha, along with cricketers like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have expressed their opinions on social media.

Kangana is even sparring with Punjabi singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh and has had nasty exchanges on Twitter. Kangana has been tweeting against Rihanna and Greta, also targeting Indian celebs speaking out in support of the protesting farmers. Two of her tweets were subsequently deleted by Twitter over violation of rules.
