Boycott Maldives trended on social media following the furore over Maldivian ministers ridiculing PM Narendra Modi, potentially hitting the Maldives's tourism-dependent economy.

I&B minister Anurag Thakur encouraged people to explore the country's tourist destinations, while Tendulkar reminisced about his experience in Maharashtra's Sindhudurg.
