In his note, Vivek extended his support to his "incredible community." He wrote, "To my extended family in the UAE, I know the headlines can feel heavy right now, but remember the foundations of this land are built on peace, resilience, and an incredible spirit of togetherness. Even though we hail from over 200 different nations, we are a part of an incredible community that looks out for each other as one big family. "

Vivek praises UAE government

He also praised the government of the country. "I salute the exceptional leadership of the UAE Government, @modgovae, and the dedicated armed forces of the UAE. Their fearless spirit and tireless defence keep every resident safe and secure, and timely alerts issued by the @NCEMAUAE are our greatest tool for preparedness. The bond between our nations is a bridge of steel, and the safety of every soul here is held in the highest regard. Stay safe, stay indoors as advised, and stay calm," he added.

His note comes as several Indian celebrities, including Ajith Kumar, Vishnu Manchu, Sonal Chauhan, and Esha Gupta, are in the UAE.
