GST: Celebrities praise saying "GST .... a new road" and some post jokes! Read all reactions!

Mumbai: Bollywood celebrities like Anupam Kher and Riteish Deshmukh have welcomed the "new road" - Goods and Services Tax (GST), which is India's biggest tax reform since Independence. The reform was rolled out past midnight on Friday in the precincts of the hallowed Central Hall of Parliament to usher in a new indirect tax regime. Here is what the celebrities had to say: * Anupam Kher: Chashme ka number jab badalta hai toh ek-do din lagta hai adjust karne mein. Bahut he saadhaaran/uttam vyakhya pradhaanmantri Narendra Modi. (When the number of your specs change, it takes a day or two to adjust. What a simple but apt sentence by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. GST tryst. Singer Shaan had a song to describe what GST makes him feel
