In order to prevent the spread of COVID-19, people have been refraining from handshaking and opting for other ways to greet. Some of the world leaders, which include names like Emmanuel Macron and Benjamin Netanyahu among others, have urged their countermen to welcome people with traditional Indian style of ‘namaste’.
Taking a cue from them, a video of Prince Charles has surfaced on the internet showing him ditching handshake and greeting people with a 'prayer-like gesture'.
In the viral clip, the 71-year-old can initially be seen extending his hands to greet people, but he suddenly acknowledges the potential threats of novel coronavirus and greeted guests with folded hands.

Seems like, the reference erm “prayer-like” gesture didn’t go down well with Bollywood actress Raveena Tandon. Sharing the clip, she wrote, “It’s a “Namaste”. Do some homework”.
