With Lok Sabha elections going on, several B-town celebrities insist that voting is essential and some have voiced their opinion on how their dream India should be like.
"I think the present government failed on most of the fronts, corruption happened directly or indirectly. I would definitely need a change in political system. We need a stable and strong government. I would urge everyone to vote," noted actor Anupam Kher told PTI.
Kher's short film 'I Went Shopping for Robert De Niro' will be premiered on the second day of the the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) awards in Florida, US. The awards will be held at Tampa Bay from April 23-26.
"My wife Kirron and son Sikander will be here during elections. I am yet to take a call on this (voting)," he said.

Actress Deepika Padukone hopes the promises made by politicians are fulfilled this time.
"I feel we need change (in political system). I think it is the sentiment that most people feel. There are promises being made when we are to vote. This time I hope more number of youths will vote. I feel and hope all the promises made will be lived upto," she said.
Deepika would be attending the IIFA awards but being an Indian, for her voting is essential. "I would vote first and then fly to IIFA," she said.
