The 48-year-old 'Dabangg' star took to Twitter to accept the PM's invite.
Priyanka Chopra also showed her support for the cause yesterday by tweeting, "I humbly accept respected Prime Minster Narendra Modiji's challenge. This is an idea that is long overdue CleanIndiaCampaign.
"If we don't get involved and support this campaign, nothing can happen. But if we come together we can make a difference. Every action we take will be important. I want to make the change. I want a clean India. It's time to clean up our act."
'Dhoom 3' star Aamir Khan also joined Modi's mission by taking the pledge with him at the India Gate to thousands of people, including schools children and government employees at Rajpath for remaining committed to cleanliness to make the country clean.
