Here is what the celebrities had to say: Shekhar Kapur: Sleeping open air at night staring at the endless Milky Way. Shaking Jamun trees for their fruit at India Gate. That was Delhi. Delhi chokes. Anupam Kher: This is a pic of Delhi Smog. Sky is full of it at 11.41 a.m. Eyes burning. Lethal and dangerous for people living here. Needs immediate attention. Ashoke Pandit: If the capital of India is asthmatic and breathless, then India's health is bleak. Delhi chokes. Abhishek Kapoor: Delhi smog needs to be addressed with utmost urgency. It's horrifying to see what we have bought upon ourselves. Dia Mirza: Stop blaming governments. Become a part of the solution. Citizen participation. Delhi smog. My right to breathe.
