New Delhi [India], May 25 : Cohering the importance of wearing mask amid the COVID-19 pandemic, actor Ayushmann Khurrana on Monday shared a video advocating the need for wearing the face mask.
The 35-year-old star put out a video on Instagram where he pointed out the excuses the people make to not wear masks. The 'Bala' star said, "Why should I wear a mask? I can't breathe properly."
Pointing on further excuses that people create, Khurrana said: "Why should I wear it? People can't even see my face. Why should I be wearing a mask? Nothing will happen to me. Why should I wear a mask? Everyone in my society is healthy and fine, leave it. Why should I be wearing a mask? It takes a lot of hard work."
The actor then answered to the questions and said, "Yes, it is hard work that all the doctors, nurses, government officials, delivery boys they are doing sheer hard work, so that their efforts to keep us safe don't go in vain."
And if they are putting on such hard work, our small contribution of wearing a mask is worth it.
