However, the event gathered crowd to take a glimpse of the 'Raees' star who waved to acknowledge them.
Even though it a minute for the star to inaugurate the #Bandra sculpture, he and BJP MP ÃÃÃÃu00c2u0088Poonam Mahajan didn't anticipate was the time it would take for them to return to their vehicles, thanks to the massive crowd that had gathered when they heard of the star's presence.
Lack of bandobast led to mediapersons toppling over each other, while Mahajan herself escaped a fall.
On the thought behind the #Bandra sculpture, Rouble Nagi says, "As an artist I feel that # (hashtag) is "really a movement" and has been so since a while now. The hope is that the hashtag will inspire action and serve as a springboard that people can use to launch themselves from online conversation to real-world action. In a way, the hashtag becomes a symbol of empowerment⦠it creates an opportunity for sustained engagement and makes sure that governmental organisations know it and inspire further action. Hence #Bandra."
