Several Bollywood celebrities, including Sonam Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra, have already extended their support to farmers protesting against the new farm laws.
Kapoor called farmers "founders of human civilisation". "When tillage begins, other arts follow. The farmers, therefore, are the founders of civilsation," she wrote on Twitter.
"Our farmers are India’s Food Soldiers. Their fears need to be allayed. Their hopes need to be met. As a thriving democracy, we must ensure that this crises is resolved sooner than later," Chopra had said in a tweet.
