Bollywood celebrities such as Farhan Akhtar, Taapsee Pannu, and Madhur Bhandarkar hailed the Supreme Court's verdict on the Ayodhya case on November 9 and requested people to respect the court's decision.

The Supreme Court on Saturday directed the Centre to form a trust within three months, which will build a temple at the disputed site in Ayodhya.

The Sunni Waqf Board, which was a party to the seven-decade-old title suit, should be given an alternate five-acre land at some other suitable place for construction of a mosque, a five-member bench headed by Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi, said in a unanimous judgment.

Soon after the verdict, #AyodhyaCase started trending. Bollywood celebrities, too, took to Twitter to share their opinion on the historic judgment.

Here are some reactions from B-Town:
