Requesting celebrities to keep the vacations to themselves, Nawaz further added, "But what else will they talk about? Acting? They will run out of steam in two minutes. In logon ne Maldives ko tamasaha bana rakha hai. I don’t know what their arrangement is with the tourism industry. But for the sake of humanity, please keep these vacations to yourself. There is suffering everywhere. The cases of Covid are multiplying. Have a heart. Please don’t taunt those who are suffering."

Earlier, author Shobha De and celebrity manager Rohini Iyer had also lambasted celebrities for posting vacation pictures on social media.
