The Lakshadweep islands have become the unlikely battleground for a simmering diplomatic dispute between India and the Maldives and Bollywood celebs are supporting Lakshadweep.
After a Twitter spat between Maldivian politicians and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi over tourism promotion, Indians are boycotting Maldives as a vacation spot.
Indian celebrities like John Abraham, Sara Ali Khan, and Urvashi Rautela have turned Lakshadweep into their latest Instagram backdrop. Let’s take a look at their Bollywood pictures from the Maldives.

Came across comments from prominent public figures from Maldives passing hateful and racist comments on Indians. Surprised that they are doing this to a country that sends them the maximum number of tourists.
