Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi has got the acceptance from television actress Prachi Desai to attend 50th anniversary celebrations of Gujarat in the United States, reports Times of India.
First, it was Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan who Modi got to be the brand ambassador of Gujarat tourism. Now it is television and Bollywood hottie Prachi Desai who will be Modi's guest in the US where the Gujarati community is set to celebrate the golden jubilee year of their home state. Prachi will be flying to New Jersey to join Modi at the event.
Actually Prachi, a proud Gujjuben, could not make it to any of the celebrations being held currently in Gujarat due to date issues. But she had promised Modi that she would make up for her absence. The maverick politician took her up on this and invited her to New Jersey to represent the state. It is an official invite and Prachi is delighted to accept it.
Confirming the news to Bombay Times, Prachi said, “I do take honour in the fact that I am one of the few to be invited from the state. I am grateful to the people for their love which has brought me to this position and what better way for me to give back love and show support?”
