Bollywood Stars Won't Promote Anti-Firecracker Campaigns for Free

The firecracker industry has made a rather pointed statement regarding the involvement of Bollywood celebrities in anti-firecracker campaigns. They have indicated that celebrities will only participate if they are compensated for their time and effort. This suggests that the industry views these campaigns as a marketing opportunity rather than a purely altruistic cause. The statement has sparked debate about the role of celebrities in social issues and the influence of money on their decisions.
