Last night, following PM Narendra Modi’s request, the country expressed their gratitude towards corona warriors by lighting candles and switching off lights for 9 minutes. Violating the #9baje9minute norm some went to the extent of bursting crackers. Actress Sonam Kapoor slammed all of them and also got trolled for the same.

After many people came on the streets to light crackers, Sonam slammed them for ruining the peace that was maintained. She also spoke about how it has left the animals on the streets traumatized.

Sonam wrote, “There was complete peace and quite, and now the birds ,dogs and sirens are freaking out in south Delhi because some morons decided to burst fire crackers tonight. People are bursting crackers. Just FYI . They dogs are freaking out. Do people think it’s Diwali? I’m so confused.”
