The Corona virus outbreak is taking a toll on the daily livelihood of the people, all over the world and things are getting intense and severe in many countries. The Indian Government has requested the entire nation to stay indoors and in isolation to prevent the disease from spreading among people. Last night, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced a curfew throughout India on March 22, coming Sunday, between 7 AM and 9 PM. On that note, ace director Shankar has extended his support to Modi’s move and has requested the people of the nation to stand together during this tough time.

Shankar took to his Twitter space to share a few words for his followers. He said, “#COVID19 is going to be the litmus test for human resilience. My heartfelt gratitude to all the support machineries who are working tirelessly to keep all of us safe. Let us stand united and support our PM @narendramodi ji appeal for #JantaCurfew #IndiaFightsCorona”.

On the work front, director Shankar is doing Indian 2 with Kamal Haasan and the film’s shooting is currently on a break, after the tragic crane accident that happened at the shooting spot, last month. Check out Shankar’s tweet below:
