Oscar-winning actress Susan Sarandon is the latest international celebrity to show support to Indian farmers, who are protesting against the new farm laws introduced by the government.
Tweeting her support, she also shared a link to an article addressing the issue in detail.
"Standing in solidarity with the #FarmersProtest in India. Read about who they are and why they're protesting below," Sarandon wrote along with the link.
The 74-year-old Hollywood veteran won the Best Actress Oscar for "Dead Man Walking", and has been nominated in the category for the prestigious trophy on four other occasions. She also won a Best Actress award at BAFTA for her work in The Client.
