NEW DELHI: Leaping from playlists to front pages, Rihanna has made the transition from the cult pop star who has much of young, upper class urban India dancing to her songs to the global celebrity all of India can t stop talking about – or finding out more about.
Veteran Hollywood actor Susan Sarandon became the latest celebrity to extend support to the farmers' protest, posting a news story from the New York Times with her comment. "Standing in solidarity with the #FarmersProtest in India. Read about who they are and why they're protesting below," read her tweet, posted days after the huge row triggered when pop icon Rihanna flagged the protests.
