Mumbai: As the country goes through a rough phase due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Bollywood star Varun Dhawan penned a thought-provoking note and said that 'we are all in this together'. The `Student of The Year` star took to Instagram and shared the message.

He said, "If we all survive this, as I hope we shall remember that when it came down to it, we didn`t fight for land or weapons or house or jewellery."

"We didn`t fight for concert tickets or fancy designations or religions or politics. We didn`t fight for shares in a company or a seat at the table. We didn`t fight for business class tickets or the keys to a house by the beach. When all this is over, remember, that we fought for air," added Dhawan.

Taking to the caption, the `Coolie No 1` star stated, "We are in this together."
