“Even though we hail from over 200 different nations, we are part of an incredible community that looks out for each other as one big family. I salute the exceptional leadership of the UAE Government, @modgovae, and the dedicated armed forces of the UAE.

He wrote, “To those back home in India: Let’s keep everyone in our prayers. Don’t be a bridge for panic. Seek the source and only rely on verified media. Choose empathy above all else. The truth will always be the strongest shield we have. Sending peace and light to every home in the Emirates.”
Vivek’s message comes at a time when several Indian celebrities are currently in the UAE due to flight disruptions caused by the situation in West Asia.
