The image featured a recreated version of the movie’s famous dialogue “Babuji ne kaha gaon chhod do…”. It read: “Babuji ne kaha ghar chhod do, sabne kaha Paro ko chhod do. Par koi kuch bhi kahe, main vote dena nahin chhodunga.”
The picture was captioned: “Voting is citizens’ right, responsibility and a duty. Don’t get swayed by what people say. Be a responsible citizen, go out and vote. It matters.”
The Lok Sabha elections, which began on Thursday, will run till May 19.
