The 2024 Lok Sabha elections are an important event in India. In Maharashtra’s Phase 5, some Bollywood celebrities voted early. They demonstrated their civic responsibilities by posing for photographs with tattooed fingertips, indicating that they had voted. Bollywood celebrities’ election participation highlights how important public figures are in promoting democracy and voting.
Their engagement can motivate more people to vote, emphasising that every vote is important. Actors like Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Kumar have used social media to urge voting.
Paresh Rawal was among Mumbai’s early voters. After casting his ballot, the veteran actor spoke with photographers outside the voting place.

He added, “Aap kahoge sarkar yeh nahin karti, woh nahi karti aur agar aj aap mathdaan nahi karoge toh uske liye zimmedaar aap honge. Aur sarkaar zimmedaar nahin hai. Jo log vote nahin karte… unka kuch naa kuch toh pravdhan hona chahiye. Ya toh tax badha do. Kuch naa kuch toh saza ya reaction hona chahiye.”
Paresh Rawal, the multifaceted Bollywood actor, is preparing to captivate the audience with his next endeavours. He will be collaborating with Vaani Kapoor and Aparshakti Khurrana on a family drama written and directed by Navjot Gulati.
According to rumours, a person close to the production revealed that ‘Nicky Vicky Bhagnani Films’ would produce the untitled film alongside Ankur Takrani.
The insider elaborated, stating, “It’s a family dramedy set against the backdrop of dysfunctional relationships in current times. The producers were looking for a cast of reputable performers to spearhead the project, and Vaani Kapoor, Paresh Rawal, and Aparshakti Khurrana said yes right away. The film will begin soon, with a lengthy start-to-finish schedule in London.”
Paresh Rawal will also do three back-to-back humorous performances that will make the audience chuckle. The actor stars in Hera Pheri 3 opposite Akshay Kumar and Suniel Shetty, both comedic giants. In addition to Awara Pagal Deewana 2, he is working on Welcome to the Jungle.
