Asserting that only vaccination can ensure everyone’s safety, Bhumi Pednekar throws her weight behind campaign designed to encourage youngsters to get jabbed

Bhumi Pednekar
Bhumi Pednekar is the perfect example of how a celebrity can use his/her soft power to bring about change. Only months after she launched her online community of COVID Warrior, the actor has now thrown her weight behind another urgent cause — vaccination. She is part of the Sleeves Up campaign that is targeted at youngsters.
Proud to collaborate with the Bhamla Foundation that started the campaign in Bandra and Khar last month, Pednekar says, “Mr [Asif] Bhamla is concentrating on vaccinating the country’s youth. They are at great risk because of their lifestyle and jobs; they are also the wealth creators of the country. Vaccination is the only solution to the problem that the world is facing.” She is glad to join Sachin Tendulkar, Arjun Kapoor and Disha Patani in spreading the good word. “Using our soft power rightly for the betterment of society is our responsibility.”
