Voting in Maharashtra for the 288 assembly seats began on Wednesday, November 20, 2024. People are coming out in large numbers to cast their vote and Bollywood celebrities are no exception. No points for guessing which Bollywood star was among the early voters. Yes, right, it is Akshay Kumar, who was spotted at the voting centre with his security. After casting his vote, the actor praised the preparations made by the Elections Commission of India (ECI) at the centre for voters and specifically for senior citizens. He also urged people to come out of their houses and cast their votes.
”The best thing is that the arrangements are very good. I can see that arrangements for senior citizens are very good and cleanliness has been maintained. Everyone should come and vote because that is the most important thing,” Akshay said to media.
Stree 2 star Rajkummar Rao was also spotted at the voting centre earlier today where after casting his vote, the actor said that he has performed his duties. ”It is our right in democracy, so it’s important that we step outside to vote. I have performed my duties,” he said.
Not only actors but filmmaker Kabir Khan was also seen reaching his voting centre on Wednesday to cast his vote. After casting his vote, the director also showed his inked finger to the paps.
