Hyderabad: Allu Arjun and “Pushpa” are literally everywhere. And, everyone is riding the “Pushpa” wave. Now, the icon star’s fame has reached a new level. He is now on the central government’s twitter handles.
Information & Broadcasting Ministry has shared a meme on Allu Arjun’s “Pushpa” to spread COVID-19 awareness. And, this craze is unbelievable. In a tweet shared by I&B Ministry, posted by the ministry’s Twitter page ‘#IndiaFightsCorona @COVIDNewsByMIB’ which shares updates on COVID-19, Allu Arjun’s character from the film “Pushpa” is seen wearing a mask.
The photograph of the icon star from the movie is used to spread message among people to wear a mask and stay safe, even if it is Delta or Omicron. The caption says, “#Pushpa..#PushpaRaj ho ya koi bhi, Our fight against #COVID19 is still on!”. And, the actor seems to be saying “Delti Ho Ya Omicron. Main Mask Utaarega Nahin”. This is an innovative use of the trend to reach people.
