India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi is celebrating his birthday today and several Bollywood celebrities have been wishing him on social media since this morning. ‘Queen’ actor Kangana Ranaut, who has in the past met the PM at various events, took to social media to share a video birthday message for him. “I have never had the opportunity to speak to you, since we have always met for photo-ops. You are being treated so unfairly, no one would ever but you know that is just a propaganda. What the common Indian feels for you, I don’t think so much respect, love has been ever showered on a PM before. So I just want to say that those crores of Indians, who are not on social media, who may not be able to reach out to you, they are all praying for your long life and we are all very fortunate to have you as our PM,” she said. She recently returned to her hometown Manali and shot for this clip at her residence. Image Credit: twitter/rangoli chandel
