However, the netizens slammed the actor and the movie crew for not taking care of the environment and also asked them to clean their village daily.
Some of them said the reaction of the film party smacks of arrogance.
Ladakhis have expressed their desperation and anger at the iresponsible behaviour of the tourists as some of them have been found polluting their lakes and other water bodies.
Recently the Magsaysay award winner Sonam Wangchuk took to Twitter to ask the tourist not to use the sacred Pang Gong lake for washing their cars and throwing garbage in it. "This is not you car wash facility or a racing ground; it's our sacred lake," a netizen wrote in response to a family posting picture of washing their car at Pang Gong Tso.
