Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli have shared a video message for fans amid the coronavirus lock down

Celebrity couple Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli have shared a video message for their fans, urging them to stay indoors amid the coronavirus pandemic. The couple’s message comes a day after Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced a ‘Janta curfew’ to curb the virus’ spread on Sunday.

The video, shared by both Anushka and Virat on social media, was captioned, “Stay Home. Stay Safe. Stay Healthy,” by Anushka. Virat, quote-tweeting his wife’s message, wrote, “The need of the hour is to absolutely respect and follow the government’s directive. Stay home. Stay safe. Stay healthy.”

In the video, Virat says, “We know we are all going through a very difficult time.” Anushka chimes in, “The only way to stop the spread of coronavirus is by acting together.”

Virat continues, “We are staying at home for our safety, and for everyone else as well.” Anushka concludes by saying, “And you should do it too, to prevent the further spread of the virus.” 

The need of the hour is to absolutely respect and follow the government's directive. Stay home. Stay safe. Stay healthy. 🙏🏻 https://t.co/p1NDo0E9YL
