On the auspicious occasion of Gandhi Jayanti, Prime Minister Narendra Modi pledged for Swachh India campaign. He made the cult movement by stepping out with a broom in his hand to clean the filthy streets of India and then nominated few celebrities to take part in the campaign by supporting it. Salman Khan , Priyanka Chopra and Kamal Haasan were amongst those nine celebs whom PM had personally appointed.

Priyanka accepted the appeal and posted her picture while cleaning the street with a caption "I humbly accept respected Prime Minister Narendra Modiji's challenge. This is an idea that is long overdue. There is no time like the present to begin the journey towards change. Recognise that we r doing this for ourselves. If we don't get involved & support this campaign, nothing can happen. But if we come together we can make a difference. Every action we take will be important. I want to make the change. I want a clean India. It's time to clean up our act."

Salman Khan tweeted "Me & my Foundation accept the invite from our honourable Prime Minister for Swachh Bharat and will give our 100% for My Clean India."

Even Kamal Haasan has accepted the nomination and will continue to work for environment.

Well, not just these three stars but several others from B-Town came all out to pour in their support for this noble cause.

Freida Pinto wrote "Next 5 years we should aim to breathe clean &erase that unsavory label of "filthy" and "smelly" that India is burdened with. This is every Indian citizen's responsibility. Not just those nominated. Lets all figure a way to contribute..big or small Have waited for an announcement like this for ages. Its now official"
