Well, Harsha Bhogle did not remain far behind as he too congratulated the influential leader. He, however, threw a challenge for Narendra Modi 2.0, urging the upcoming Prime Minister of this great nation to create more opportunities for women. Hailing the work done by the government in the recent past, Bhogle said that it is high time all the citizens of the country get equal opportunity.

“The one thing I would desperately want @narendramodi 2.0 to pursue with vigour is creating more opportunities for women. That will be India’s next great revolution. The last 10-15 years have been good but young India is so awesome that everyone there should have equal opportunity,” Harsha Bhogle wrote on Twitter.
