00:00 Bollywood's Ranveer Singh jumped on the bandwagon to promote tourism on Indian islands alongside

00:12 Prime Minister Narendra Modi. But here's the catch, the actor hit a bit of a snag in the

00:18 process. Just this Sunday on January 7th, Ranveer Singh hopped onto ex-formerly Twitter to share

00:24 an allure of exotic island urging everyone to make 2024 about exploring India. The actor wrote,

00:32 "Chalo India, let's explore Indian islands." But there's a twist in the tale. However,

00:38 the Twitterverse didn't let Ranveer off the hook that easily. Swift as ever, users were quick to

00:45 point out that the picturesque island he shared wasn't from Lakshadweep or any other Indian

00:50 island. It was straight from the Maldives. One user even questioned, "You are promoting Indian

00:56 islands with a picture from the Maldives. What's the deal, Ranveer?" After users swiftly caught

01:01 Ranveer's island mix-up, he wasted no time and deleted the post. Attempting damage control,

01:07 he reposted it without the picture to play it safe. But the Twitterati wasn't letting him off

01:13 the hook easily. Some cheeky comments rolled in with one saying, "Too late to delete. The

01:19 internet always wins." And another noting, "Posted a Maldives pic and deleted." Meanwhile,

01:24 the Bollywood jet-setters, including Ranveer and Deepika Padukone, continued to keep us

01:30 questioning and guessing about their vacation destination as they were spotted leaving Mumbai

01:35 for an undisclosed gateway. As the Visit Lakshadweep campaign gains momentum, Bollywood

01:42 A-listers such as Amitabh Bachchan write, "We are Bharat. We are at nirbhar. Our self-reliance should

01:49 not be questioned. Jai Hind." While Varun Dhawan is following PM's steps and is overwhelmed by the

01:55 pristine beaches so much that he can't wait to visit. Shraddha Kapoor, Salman Khan, Akshay

02:01 Kumar, Kangana Ranaut, John Abraham and more have rallied under the hashtag #ExploreIndianIslands.

02:07 Adding her voice to the chorus, internet sensation Poonam Pandey took a stand amidst the controversy

02:14 sparked by disparaging remarks from Maldivian ministers post-PM Narendra Modi's Lakshadweep

02:20 visit. The 32-year-old actress made a bold move by cancelling her Maldives shoot last

02:27 minute, formally declaring she would never shoot there again. What's your take on this?

02:32 Tell us in the comments below.
