From Anupam Kher, Taapsee Pannu and Manoj Bajpayee to Madhuri Dixit, actors remembered Mohan Das Karamchand Gandhi, who was born today, October 2, in 1869 in Probandar. His birth anniversary is celebrated as Gandhi Jayanti in India and as the International Day of Non-Violence across the world.
Here’s how celebs remembered Bapu:
Anupam Kher: Pujniya Bapuji. Janm tithi par aapko pranam aur shat shat naman! Aap twitter par bhale aap keval aaj ya 30 january ko trend karte ho. Par aap bhartiyo ke dilon main 15, August 1947 se trend kar rahe ho! Isliye toh Mahatma Gandhi ho. Tension mat lena… Choti moti problems hain par desh acha chal raha hai.
(Dear Bapuji. Gratitude on your birth anniversary. You may trend on Twitter only today or on January 30th, but you trend in every Indian’s heart since 1947. That is why you are Mahatma Gandhi. Don’t take too much tension. We have small problems but the country is doing good.)
पूजनीय बापू। जन्म तिथि पर आपको प्रणाम एवं शत् शत् नमन। आप @Twitter पर भले केवल आज या 30 जनवरी को ही trend करते हो। पर हर भारतीय के दिल में 15 अगस्त, 1947 से trend कर रहे हो। इसीलिए तो #महात्मगांधी हो। टेन्शन मत लेना। छोटी मोटी है प्रॉब्लमस है। पर देश अच्छा चल रहा है।जय हो।🙏🇮🇳 pic.twitter.com/gn0Jy8b7WB
