    The opening of National Museum of Indian Cinema was a star-studded affair. Celebs like Aamir Khan, Jeetendra, AR Rahman, Asha Bhosle, Kapil Sharma, Poonam Dhillon and others were also there.

     

    Kapil Sharma's post also got a special reply from PM Modi. "When Kapil Sharma appreciates somebody's humour, it sure makes that person happy and I am no exception. Thank you for the kind words, Kapil," read PM Modi's reply.

     
     
     
     

    At the event, PM Modi also quoted the hit dialogue from Vicky Kaushal's Uri: The Surgical Strike - "How's the josh?" Vicky's Uri co-star Mohit Raina described the "surreal moment" with a long post on Instagram.
