The 2019 Lok Sabha elections are the hot topic in the country right now. From NaMo Tv to Narendra Modi biopic, 2019 has been a year of aggressive campaigning by the ruling Bhartiya Janta Party. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has urged the entire country to cast their vote. In fact, Modi took to Twitter and appealed to Karan Johar, Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, Bhumi Pednekar, Ayushmann Khurrana, Aamir Khan and many others to encourage youngsters to cast their vote. In response, the Bollywood fraternity has pledged their support to the cause. Interestingly, there are some top Bollywood celebrities who won’t be able to cast their vote. Read on to find out why!
