Farhan Akhtar on Monday shared a piece of news on Twitter about the centre asking Serum Institute and Bharat Biotech to lower the price of COVID vaccines as India is about to inoculate people above 18 years. Celebrating the move, the filmmaker addressing trolls wrote, “Oh look my dear trolls. Govt asked to lower price of vaccine as well. Hope you’ll swamp their TL with the lectures on economics you’ve been giving me. Until then mask up, stay home and wash your mouths.. I mean hands!”
