- IANS

The hashtag DilSeThankYou has kept trending on Twitter all of Thursday and well into Friday, which is hardly surprising because it includes the tweets of Bollywoods A-list. What catches your attention about this particular trend, which had garnered an impressive 51.3k tweets in less than 24 hours, is the reason.Bollywood stars, as a community, have always rooted for all things patriotic. In these times of COVID-19 peril, B-Town has also banded together as a social media entity to promote the virtues of lockdown. The recent DilSeThankYou sees the stars stand up and ovate India39s Corona Warriors -- particularly Mumbai Police -- who have been working tirelessly to ensure a safe city, even as Mumbai continues to be one of the worst-affected zones in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic in India.As Akshay Kumar rightly noted, the need of the hour was to thank the police for their service. "There39s an army of people working day and night to keep us safe, our families safe. Lets together say DilSeThankYou to them because that39s the least we can do," the superstar said on social media.An emotional Akshay, in a separate tweet, posed with a piece of paper on which he had written "Dil Se Thank You."The caption of the picture thanked all Corona Warriors. It read:"Name : Akshay KumarCity : MumbaiMere aur mere parivaar ki taraf se...Police, Nagar Nigam ke workers, doctors, nurses, NGOs, volunteers, government officials, vendors, building ke guards ko DilSeThankYou"To Akshay39s tweet, Jackie Shroff replied: "Asli stars respects."A video posted by Mumbai Police within the hashtag, in this context, has become very popular among the stars. Ayushmann Khurrana, Alia Bhatt, Katrina Kaif, Tiger Shroff and Kriti Sanon are among many stars who retweeted the video, which subtly conveys the message how tirelessly the police force have been working in these taxing times.In the video, which runs for two minutes and two seconds, we see a heartwarming collage of policemen across ranks, who are asked the same question: What would they do if they had a chance to stay at home during the 21-day lockdown? The answers remind you that beneath their superhero conviction to serve the nation, police personnel are human beings, too. Some of them talks of spending much-yearned time with family, some want to play with their pets, some want to relax in from of a TV set, while a few would simply go back to sleep.Re-tweeting the video, Ayushmann Khurrana wrote in Marathi: "Don39t have words to thank you enough! Today I thank you with my whole heart for keeping us safe."The Mumbai Police gave a witty reply in Marathi, with a reference to Ayushmann39s films, "Vicky Donor" and "Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan"."39Thank you Vicky, we will do everything to keep the mumbaikars zyada saavdhan," they wrote.Posting the video, Alia Bhatt agreed with Mumbai Police that it was best that we all stayed at home under the circumstances. "Thank you @MumbaiPolice Words cannot express our love and gratitude. Let39s stay home for them. TakingOnCorona."That apart, Alia retweeted the reply her tweet elicited from Mumbai Police, that said: "Mumbaikars, we hope you all are 39Raazi39 with this advise of Ms @aliaa08 to not venture out in any Gully39 unnecessarily and take care of Dear Zindagi39 for all!"The video also seems to have touched a chord with Katrina Kaif, who also shared it on Instagram."Thank You Mumbai Police. Saluting the bravery and dedication of the Mumbai Police and Maharashtra Police who are working so hard while we stay in the safety and comfort of our homes. Tremendous respect for all of you DilSeThankYou StayHome MumbaiPolice MaharashtraPolice," Katrina captioned the video.Another actress who posted the same video on social media is Kriti Sanon. She took to her Twitter handle and posted the video with the message: "A Big Big Thank You to the MumbaiPolice and people in the police forces of other cities..
