Celebrities from the entertainment industry have responded to the Aam Aadmi Party's call for the central government to print the images of the Hindu deities Lakshmi and Ganesh on banknotes. Arvind Kejriwal, the chief minister of Delhi, made this plea for the first time in an address a few days prior to which party leader Atishi Marlena responded in his defence. Actors Nakuul Mehta and Gauahar Khan have now expressed how disappointed they are with the statement.

To boost the economy, Arvind Kejriwal asked the federal government to print images of the gods alongside those of Mahatma Gandhi on banknotes. You can continue to hate Arvind Kejriwal if you want, but at least don't hate Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Ganesha, said MLA Atishi in response to criticism of the statement. Don't despise their favours.

Nakuul Mehta tweeted, "And they all fall down. eventually," after posting the video of Atishi's statement. More detailed criticism came from Gauahar Khan. She stated on Twitter, without mentioning Kejriwal or Atishi, "Alas, a leader who I thought was focused on development has succumbed to the race of winning in politics. The least capable politicians are the only ones who turn to religion. The desire to win a state election can drive someone insane with greed. #sad Time to stop following.

A previous round of criticism of the statement came from famous people who had supported and even joined the party. Whether it's a means to an end or an end in and of itself, bringing religion into everything, is a game everyone will play now, according to Gul Panag, who once ran for Lok Sabha on an AAP ticket. Moreover, not just politicians! Those who disagree may continue to make vain references to the Constitution. Vishal Dadlani, a well-known supporter of the party and Kejriwal, is a composer and singer who has subtly criticised the two on social media.

The Bharatiya Janata Party and the Congress, as well as a number of other political figures, have criticised this appeal in the meantime, arguing that since India is a secular country, it would not be appropriate to depict the gods of one particular religion on banknotes.
