Soni Razdan reaches out to Uddhav Thackeray: “Why the 16-40 age group aren’t getting vaccine first”

Alia Bhatt’s mother and veteran actress Soni Razdan has been expressing her views on the ongoing COVID vaccination drive in India. 

On Tuesday, Soni reached out to Maharashtra chief minister Uddhav Thackeray, and Aditya Thackeray and asked why the younger generation from the age group of 16-40 not getting the vaccine first.

She tweeted, "When it’s really the 16 to 40 age group that’s ‘socialising’ going out to work, bars, nightclubs etc (the last 2 without masks mostly) just can’t understand why they aren’t getting the vaccine first. @uddhavthackeray @AUThackeray."

Last week, Soni Razdan had come out in support of actors and said that the COVID-19 vaccine should be available to all actors as they cannot wear masks while working.

"So many actors get COVID and are at huge risk when working. I mean we actually can’t wear masks. But no one seems to think they need to be able to take the vaccine yet”, she had tweeted.

The actress had raised her concern after her daughter took the COVID test as a precautionary measure after Ranbir Kapoor and Sanjay Leela Bhansali tested positive. Luckily, Alia tested negative for COVID-19.
