The situation is getting worse with each passing day. The protests by students and opposition parties against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) is spreading to different parts of the nation and is also getting international attention.
While celebs like Sushant Singh participated in the protest march, other celebs are also voicing their opinion on social media.
A couple of days ago, rumours started doing the rounds that Sushant Singh has been kicked out of Savdhaan India after he took part in the protest. Later, he as well as the channel clarified that it wasn't the case.
"The next format of Savdhaan India did not require a presenter, and hence a new contract was not signed. The channel has no political views, nor does it seek to influence the political views of its contracted talent," the spokesperson told PTI.
