India is once again all set to make history after ISRO launched Chandrayaan 3 to the Moon`s South Pole. The Indian Space Research Organization is gearing up for Chandrayaan 3 landing on Wednesday, August 23. Ahead of the same, many Indian celebrities and actors extended their best wishes to ISRO and expressed their excitement.
It is indeed a proud moment for India to become the first country to land a spacecraft on the moon`s south pole. There was fierce tension between ISRO`s rover named Pragyan and Russia`s satellite until the latter unfortunately crashed in the same region. This could be a historic moment for India as it rapidly moves closer to the milestones set by global space power.

Ahead of Chandrayaan 3 landing, several Indian celebrities like Amitabh Bachchan, Jr. NTR, Rishabh Shetty, and many more actors expressed their excitement for the nation to create history. Let`s see who made it to the list.
In the episode, the Piku actor said, "Kal shaam ko jab chand niklega na, toh uss chand ki mitti par humare desh ke kadmon ki chaap hogi. Kal humara Chandrayaan-3, apne Maama ke ghar, yaani ke Chanda Maama ke ghar pahuchega. Kal humare bachpan ke kahaniyon ka chand, premika ke chehre ka chand, vrat aur tyoharon ka chaand, apne desh ki pahuch mein hoga." In the evening tomorrow, when the moon rises, our country’s footprints will be imprinted on the soil of the moon. (Tomorrow, the moon of the stories of our childhood will be within reach of our country.)
Amitabh Bachchan further added, "Ye achievement iss country ke har citizen ke liye ek message hai ke desh ne karwat lelei hai ab humko bhi kuch karna hai." (This achievement is a message for every citizen of this country that the country has taken a turn; now we also have to do something.)
