Amid the outbreak of COVID-19, known colloquially as Coronavirus, people across the world have taken to wearing masks that will keep them from getting infected. Many others have taken to greeting people with a 'namaste' instead of shaking hands and hugging. Veteran actor Anupam Kher, too, has appealed to his fans to opt for a 'namaste' to greet people.
While sharing a video on Twitter, Kher wrote, "Of late I am being told by lots of people to keep washing hands to prevent any kind of infection. I do that in any case. But also want to suggest the age-old Indian way of greeting people called #Namaste. It is hygienic, friendly & centres your energies. Try it. #caronavirus (sic)"
