After derogatory comments from Maldivian leaders on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to the Lakshadweep Islands stirred controversy, the issue has gained widespread attention. Celebrities, including popular actress Niyati Fatnani, are actively voicing support for Indian tourism amid the escalating debate.
Niyati Fatnani, known for her roles in shows like ‘Channa Mereya,’ ‘Nazar,’ and ‘Dear Ishq,’ joined the chorus of support, expressing her dismay at the remarks against India. She emphasized the importance of promoting India’s serene coastlines and captivating beauty. Niyati highlighted the cultural value of ‘Atithi Devo Bhava’ (guest is God) and underscored the wealth of exploration opportunities within the country. She expressed eagerness to plan a vacation to Lakshadweep.
The ‘Lakshadweep-Maldives’ controversy has sparked reactions from various Indian citizens on social media. While Prime Minister Modi shared images from his Lakshadweep visit without mentioning any specific location, strong criticisms from Maldivian government ministers triggered a social media conflict between the two nations. In response, celebrities from the film and television industries have rallied in support of India, emphasizing unity and solidarity.
