The controversy escalated as 'Boycott Maldives' gained traction following derogatory remarks against India. Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Lakshadweep and subsequent praises sparked retaliation from Maldivian officials. Despite this, Modi continued to extol the beauty of Lakshadweep and its people.

The rift deepened as Maldivian ministers targeted Modi, with Deputy Minister Mariyam Shiuna's now-deleted comment disparaging the Indian Prime Minister. However, Indian luminaries like Aakash, Akshay Kumar, and John Abraham rallied against the boycott. They emphasized supporting 'ExploreIndianIslands' and advocated dignified responses amidst the tension.

The collective stance of Indian celebrities showcased solidarity in promoting Indian tourism and hospitality, reiterating the 'Atithi Devo Bhava' philosophy amidst the escalating discourse between India and the Maldives.
