Rajkummar Rao comes across as a rational, thinking and a responsible citizen. The ‘Shahid’ actor is known for doing meaningful cinema and backing projects with sound content. Now, just a while back, Election Commission of India (ECI) announced the dates for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. The elections will begin on April 11 and the results will be declared on May 23.

Rajkummar Rao has a special message for the youth of the country ahead of polling. The ‘Newton’ actor took to his Twitter account and urged the young generation to vote. The actor expressed his views as he featured in a video as part of the #PowerOf18 online video series, an initiative by Twitter India.

Rajkummar in his message said, “Voting day is the only day when we are the most powerful. We can change the shape of our future by choosing the right people.”

The actor also dismissed the notion of what difference can one vote make and said, “That’s a stupid thought. Every vote counts. If everybody starts thinking ‘if I wont vote it’s fine’, it is not going to work.”

He further added, “If you want to bring a change, if you want to make our country a better place, use that power. There’s no point sitting at home and playing video games. Go out and vote.” 

Hopefully, the whole of India listens to Rajkummar and participates in the festival of democracy by voting.
