In a heartfelt letter addressed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Bollywood actor Shilpa Shetty expressed her profound gratitude for his instrumental role in the construction of the historic Ram Mandir in Ayodhya. Shilpa lauded PM Modi's ability to reshape history and praised his important role in altering the narrative surrounding the Ram Janmabhoomi, a monumental shift in a 500-year-old saga.

How did Shilpa praise PM Narendra Modi?

Shilpa wrote in Hindi which can be loosely translated as, "Some read history, and some learn it, but people like you recreate it. You have changed the 500-year-old history of the Ram Janmabhoomi. A heartfelt thank you for it. For achieving this auspicious feat, your name has forever been etched with Prabhu Shri Ram."

The official social media handle of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) acknowledged Shilpa's sentiments by sharing the image of her letter and underscoring the significance of her appreciation.

The Pran Pratishtha of Lord Ram in the newly created Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Mandir took place on January 22. Prime Minister Narendra Modi presided over the rituals of the consecration ceremony and marked a historic moment in Ayodhya's cultural landscape.
