On the other hand, South superstar Rajinikanth also took the opportunity and urged his fans to be a part of the campaign showing his support. PM Narendra Modi recently shared the news during his ‘Mann Ki Baat’ episode and appealed everyone to join the cleanliness drive.

According to a report in India Today, he said, “One hour of shramdaan for swachhata" on October 1 by all citizens and said it would be a "Swachhanjali" to Mahatma Gandhi on the eve of his birth anniversary on October 1.” Soon Akshay Kumar and Rajinikanth also shared this message of keeping the environment and country clean.

Akshay Kumar shared a picture on Instagram in which he was seen holding a broom and collecting all the garbage on a beach. Sharing the image he wrote, “Cleanliness is not just about physical spaces, it is a state of mind. Being out of the country couldn’t stop me from paying a tribute to Swachhata Abhiyan. So I would say wherever you are, do your bit to keep your space, and mind, clutter free. #SwachhataHiSeva.”
