Kumar interacted with the media during a press conference held at the BMC headquarters, where Municipal Commissioner Bhushan Gagrani announced the Mumbai Clean League.
However, in the recent inter-ministerial briefing, Sujata Sharma, Joint Secretary, Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas, maintains, "LPG situation is concerning."
She said, “Regarding natural gas, as I told you, the Government of India is making efforts, and it would be beneficial if all commercial LPG consumers shifted to PNG.”
Talking about the new initiative, the actor appealed to the citizens to participate in the competition to keep the city clean. Saying that he had come directly from shooting, the actor added,"I took time out from shooting today to come here because this issue (cleanliness) is important. We need to move forward with a positive mindset.''
"This can change a lot. We always depend on the BMC for cleanliness, but as citizens, what do we do? Now the time has come for citizens to act," Kumar added.

The actor will next be seen on Bhoot Bangla, directed by Priyadarshan. This marks the reunion of the veteran filmmaker and the actor after 14 years. The movie also stars Paresh Rawal, Rajpal Yadav, Tabu and the late Asrani.
