Veteran Bollywood actress Saira Banu has shared a touching birthday message for Prime Minister Narendra Modi on his 75th birthday. In a heartfelt Instagram post, she opened up about a personal act of kindness from the PM that helped her through one of her toughest times—the loss of her late husband, the legendary Dilip Kumar.
Saira Banu posted a warm photo with Narendra Modi and wrote, “A very Happy Birthday to our esteemed Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi ji. On this special day, I want to recall the kindness and compassion he showed me during my deepest sorrow.”
Recalling the emotional moment after Dilip Kumar’s passing in 2021, Saira shared how PM Modi’s words gave her strength. “When my beloved Dilip Sahib left us, I was drowning in grief and barely had the will to go on. That’s when his comforting voice reached me, saying, ‘Aap apne aap ko sambhaliye, aur ek baat jaan lijiye ki hum aapke parivaar hain’—meaning, ‘Take care of yourself, and know that we are your family.’ Those words lifted my spirits when I needed them most.”
She also mentioned a missed chance to meet him in Mumbai due to her health issues. “Later, when he visited Mumbai, we had planned to meet, but my poor health held me back. Finally, when we did meet in Delhi, I saw the same humility, warmth, and genuine care that had supported me from afar.”
Wrapping up her birthday wishes for Narendra Modi, Saira Banu added, “On this birthday, I wish him robust health, a long life filled with purpose, and the strength to lead our nation with the compassion and dignity he always shows.”
Fans have loved this glimpse into Saira Banu’s bond with PM Modi, highlighting his human side amid his busy role as India’s leader. The post has sparked warm reactions online, celebrating both the birthday and the enduring friendship.
