Actors Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor, who are currently busy promoting their forthcoming film ‘Mr and Mrs Mahi’, were among the early voters in Mumbai. The actors flaunted their inked fingers after casting their votes in the city.
Rajkummar Rao also interacted with the cameramen stationed outside the polling booth and urged everyone to cast their votes. He mentioned he was headed to Varanasi along with Janhvi to promote their forthcoming film.
‘If through us you people can get influenced then of course that’s the biggest thing that we can do to make people aware of the importance of voting. I’m very thrilled that the Election Commission chose me to be the national icon. It is a moral duty and a responsibility towards our nation to come out and vote,’ Rajkummar Rao said.
Janhvi Kapoor also urged everyone to step out and vote.
Earlier, stars like Akshay Kumar, Farhan Akhtar and Zoya Akhtar were seen casting their votes in Mumbai.
