Earlier on Monday, the 77-year-old star shared his blog about shooting a Karamveer special episode for the quiz show KBC. The photo he shared seems to be from the same episode where he wore the green ribbon.

Talking about its significance, he had written, “the green ribbon is the acceptance of the fact that we are organ donors .. and if there be no money’s left with harry and sally .. then the desire to overcome becomes excitable.”

The actor has recently recovered from COVID-19. He was admitted to the Lilavati hospital for several weeks before he could be discharged after testing negative for the virus.
