Sonam Wangchuk's hunger strike entered its 19th day on Wednesday, drawing fresh support from Bollywood after actor Sonakshi Sinha broke her silence with an emotional appeal. Backing the climate activist, Sonakshi urged the government to begin a dialogue before his health deteriorates further, saying she could no longer remain silent.
As the Sonam Wangchuk hunger strike continues over the alleged NEET-UG 2026 paper leak and examination-related irregularities at Delhi's Jantar Mantar, actors Fatima Sana Shaikh, Imran Khan and Aditi Rao Hydari have also voiced their support.
