Popular Bhojpuri actor and BJP campaigner Pawan Singh made headlines on Thursday as he cast his vote in his native village Jokhari, located in the Barhara Assembly constituency of Bihar.
The actor arrived at the polling booth early in the morning, stood in the queue, and greeted locals with folded hands. Soon after voting, he took to social media to share a message that instantly went viral —
“First vote, then refreshments.”
