Several Bollywood personalities including Arshad Warsi, Milind Soman and Ranvir Shorey have joined the ongoing "Boycott China" campaign on social media.
Warsi took to Twitter and shared that he is consciously going to avoid using Chinese goods.
"I am consciously going to stop using everything that is Chinese. As they are a part of most of the things we use, it will take time but I know, one day I'll be Chinese free. You should try it too," he wrote.
Actor-model Milind Soman said he is no longer using the Chinese short-video making application TikTok. "Am no longer on tiktok. BoycottChineseProducts," tweeted Soman.
Actor Ranvir Shorey simply wrote: "Bilkul. Beshaq. BoycottChina. CKMKB."
The hashtags #BoycottChineseProducts and #BoycottChina started trending after educator and innovator Sonam Wangchuk, whose life inspired the Aamir Khan-starrer "3 Idiots", shared a video on YouTube urging all to avoid Chinese goods amid the growing tensions between India and China in Ladakh. Netizens and a string of known personalities alike have followed Wangchuk's lead. Among them is television actress Kamya Punjabi requested everyone to use only Indian goods. (IANS)
