Members of the Indian film fraternity, including veterans like playback singer Asha Bhosle and superstar Rajinikanth, congratulated prime minister Narendra Modi as the Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance coalition registered a landslide victory in the elections to the seventeenth Lok Sabha.
Besides Bhosle and Rajinikanth, younger talents like actors Sonu Sood, Varun Dhawan and Riteish Deshmukh also congratulated Modi for the "fantastic win".
Asha Bhosle said, "The Indian electorate has voted wisely. Congratulations to the honourable PM Modi, NDA and all BJP cadres who worked tirelessly to take our country into a golden age that is long overdue. Jai Hind."
