The actor also had a message of hope being an ‘eternal optimist’, asking if it could be a change for the ‘better of the whole world’ amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Great Conjunction
The conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn was named ‘Great’ as the two planets appeared the closest, after centuries, in a rare phenomenon. It has also been termed a ‘Christmas Star’. The planets appeared closest since the Middle Ages, which was over 400 years ago, and next such conjunction is likely to take place on November 4, 2040.
