Bollywood stars Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Ajay Devgn Madhuri Dixit, Ranveer Singh and Riteish Deshmukh have changed their social media display pictures to Maharashtra police logo in support of the state police working 24/7 amid coronavirus pandemic..
This was apparently after a request from state Home Minister Anil Deshmukh urging people to change their DPs and replace it by Maharashtra police logo so as to encourage the force.
Maharashtra Police has stood by citizens thro’ calamities, attacks & disasters. Today as they lead the war on Corona on the streets, I’ve decided to celebrate them by changing my DP on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc to the Maharashtra Police logo. Join me in this endeavour
