Alia asks people to be patient!
on Nov 19, 2016
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is getting some enormous support from the Bollywood brigade on his bold step of demonetisation of currency to counter black money menace in the nation. After Aamir Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Amitabh Bachchan, youth sensation Alia Bhatt has come out in support of the move. She called Modi's surprising financial policy a "big change" and that it will inevitably "have some repercussions." The policy which became effective from November 9 makes Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes invalid as currency. As such, people would be required to deposit these notes in the bank as well as account for them. Any instance of unaccounted cash would be dealt with strictly. She was quoted as saying, "It's easier said than done. The people who have had that kind of loose cash, (for them) it's not available any more or it's lesser available." She also insisted that people should wait and watch whether the demonetisation policy works out for the greater good. "We have to be patient," she said.
