    PM Modi and Shubhanshu Shukla share sweet space banter

    NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday had a delightful video call with Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla, India’s latest spacefarer, on Saturday. While their conversation revolved around space and India’s growth, ‘Gajar ka halwa’ was also mentioned. After congratulating Shukla for scripting history, PM Modi said with a smile, “You are in space, where there is no gravity, but every Indian is watching that you are down to earth.”“You’ve taken gajar ka halwa up there — have you shared it with your teammates?” PM Modi laughed while asking Shukla“Yes,” he said, chuckling. “I brought gajar ka halwa, moong dal ka halwa, and even aam ras. I wanted everyone who has joined me from other countries to enjoy India’s rich culinary heritage. We had it together — and everyone loved it,” he added.Shukla, during his conversation, also said, “A short while ago, when I was looking out of the window, we were flying over Hawaii. We see sunrise and sunset 16 times a day from the orbit…Our nation is moving forward at a very great pace…”In a statement that tugged at patriotic heartstrings back home, Shukla added, “India looks grand and bigger from space than it does on the map.”
