The honourable Prime Minister of India, Shri Narendra Modi, turned 75 years of age on the 17th of September and notable names from across the spectrum gathered to express their sincere wishes to the icon.
Ace Indian tennis star Sania Mirza led the wishes with a heartfelt message reflecting the support the national premier has extended to the country’s athletes.
“Here’s wishing our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji a very, very happy birthday,” Mirza began.
“Every interaction that I have had the privilege of having with you, have been nothing short of inspiring,” she added.
“He is someone who has taken a personal interest in each and every life. For me, something that personal always touched my heart. He has always offered us help as sportsmen of the country,” the 38-year-old continued.
“I would like to wish you all the very best on your birthday and hope this year is as special, or even more special than usual,” Mirza concluded.
Chess icon Viswanathan Anand also sent his best to the national premier with an anecdote from the time the two shared a meal and as did youngster Praggnandhaa.
“I have enjoyed both my meetings with him. It felt like we were talking to someone we already knew,” the 20-year-old said.
“It is fascinating how he remembers each person and knows about them. He is able to connect with everyone,” he added,.
