Nagpur Police Used Shah Rukh & Deepika’s Chennai Express Meme To Spread Awareness About COVID-19

The Indian government and various departments are using each and every medium to spread awareness about the coronavirus outbreak and telling people about the precautions that they should take in order to keep themselves safe. While remaining indoors is the best way to break the chain of coronavirus transmission, social distancing comes into play when people have to go out for very important purposes.

Coronavirus is contagious in nature and it is advised that people should maintain a distance of 1 meter from each other whenever they are in public places. The Nagpur police has also used its official Twitter handle for imparting knowledge about the importance of social distancing but in Bollywood style.

The Nagpur Police has used a scene from the Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone starrer “Chennai Express” in which both the actors are seen sitting on the opposite sides of a bench. A two way arrow is drawn between them with social distancing written on it and the caption is also inspired from a dialogue of the movie, “Don’t underestimate the power of a common man”.

Nagpur Police changes the dialogue to, “Don’t underestimate the power of Social Distancing! #NagpurPolice”

Check out the tweet:

Twitter got impressed with this creativity and this is how people praised Nagpur Police for the tweet:
