Ranvir Shorey had mixed reactions and he wrote, “Responsive, maybe, but this govt. has been taking their cues in the fight against #COVID19, instead of leading it. Not a good sign for the long road to recovery ahead. Less noise and more action is the need of the hour. #VaccineForAll."
Producer Ronnie Screwvala requested people to mask up."Excellent news that all above 18 can get vaccinated. But all our young Indians do remember this vaccination is not making us SuperMan or IronMan – just SaferMan !! Got the point.
