Amidst all this outbreak of coronavirus, our Prime Minister Narendra Modi had announced janta curfew for the people, by the people on 22 March 2020, and asked people to step out in their balconies at 5 p.m. to appreciate and show their gratitude for everyone fighting against coronavirus. The janta curfew turned out to be a big hit with layman deciding to stay at home. But what came out to be more over-whelming was, people coming out in balconies, lawns and terrace to show support to the doctors, nurses and others involved in serving the nation. Not just common men, even B-town celebs too came out to show their support and gratitude. From Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone to Akshay Kumar to Karan Johar, film fraternity came out in full support and amidst all this Amitabh Bachchan and his family also gathered on the terrace of their residence, Jalsa in Mumbai.
