Esha Gupta travelled from Madrid to Delhi to cast her vote. "Ever since I turned 18, I have voted only from Delhi. I don't know why I never bothered changing my address to Mumbai. Delhi is home. It is also out of habit... it is like a ritual for all of us (her family) to go together to cast our vote. We come back, eat together, discuss politics," Esha told ETimes.
"I truly feel it is really important, you can't complain if you are not doing anything about it. Ever since I landed in Delhi earlier this week, politics is the only thing we have been discussing amongst friends and family," she added.
Actress Chitrangda Singh on Saturday fulfilled her civic duty by casting her vote. Chitrangda took to her Instagram stories on Saturday and shared a picture dressed in a colourful kurta, proudly displaying her inked finger and smiling at the camera. The actress captioned the image: "Go exercise your most important right." and added the sticker "Voted".
