NEW DELHI : Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan added a touch of glamour to the oath-taking ceremony of PM-designate Narendra Modi at Rashtrapati Bhavan in Delhi.
SRK arrived at the venue accompanied by his manager Pooja Dadlani, exuding charm in his black attire and signature ponytail look.
The ceremony witnessed the presence of not only prominent political figures but also Industrialist Mukesh Ambani, the Chairman of Reliance Industries, who arrived with his son Anant Ambani.
Prime Minister-designate Narendra Modi is all set to assume office for a third consecutive term, marking a significant moment in India’s political history. Alongside him, members of his council of ministers will also take their oath this evening, reflecting the unity and shared vision of the new government.
The Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) secured an impressive victory in the Lok Sabha elections, winning a total of 293 seats. This achievement solidifies their position in the 543-strong lower house of the Indian parliament, where the minimum majority figure is 272.
