Earlier, Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri spoke to ANI during the special screening of ‘The Vaccine War’ in the US. “I think Indian science is now evolving and is getting on the world map and it is happening only because of women scientists.”
"I'm elated, I almost had tears in my eyes. Again the same story, like my film (The Vaccine War). Mostly women, whom the West does not consider empowered because of a variety of reasons. It's a great victory for Indian women and Indian science,” he said.
'The Vaccine War' narrates the tale of the triumph of scientists and 130 crore people who fought the battle in the Covid-19 era. (ANI)
