Famous Bollywood actor/comedian, Johnny Lever has encouraged Fijians to remain strong and stay safe during the COVID-19 pandemic that has taken the world by storm.

He shared a video on his social media page about the preventative measures on COVID-19 to the people of Fiji.

Mr Lever who had visited Fiji on numerous occasions also shared how he was spending time with his family in India as the nation is observing a 21-day lockdown.

He said that it has not been easy to stay home for a long period.

During his time at home, he has been helping his wife with the house chores and cooking, also making sure to follow all the instructions given by the authorities.

The father of two began his message with the local greeting,

“Bula, Bula.

Friends, this is Johnny Lever, and my love to all the wonderful, lovely people of Fiji.

I love Fiji.

My friend Bobby Khan is in Nadi, he asked to make one video for you and I am really happy.

I want to request you my dear friends, Please don’t step outside.

Be at home safely and enjoy life.

Love your family and be with your family

(Spoke in Hindi) Do not spend a lot of time on Facebook, rather sit and talk with your family members face to face.

Please, please stay at home and don’t step outside and enjoy life.

God Bless you.
