PM Modi had sweet birthday wish for Anupam Kher - with a twist; actor shares how it looks
PM Narendra Modi had a sweet birthday wish for Anupam Kher through his app. The veteran actor shared its snapshot and said he felt 'blessed' and 'humbled.'
Anupam Kher celebrated his 65th birthday in esteemed company on March 7. The veteran made it a hat-trick of spending his special day with Robert De Niro. However, the legendary actor was not the only world-famous celebrity who wished the A Wednesday star on his birthday. Prime Minister Narendra Modi also sent his good wishes to the veteran.
The Prime Minister is known to wish politicians and actors on Twitter, however, the leader chose to convey his regards in a different manner this time. PM Modi sent his birthday wishes to Kher via his app.
The 65-yeard-old shared a snapshot of PM Modi’s wish for him. The wish looked exactly like a postcard, with the stamp and the PM’s photograph on it.
PM’s message read, “Dear Anupam, Wish you a very Happy Birthday. May this year bring more happiness and success in your life,” before ending it with his signature.
Kher thanked the PM for his wish and shared how delighted he was. The actor termed as ‘humbling’ PM’s intent to reach out to people and urged him to continue inspiring people around the world.
Here's the post:
