Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday congratulated the makers of ”The Vaccine War”, saying the movie has made every Indian feel proud.
The Vivek Agnihotri-directed movie, which released theatrically on September 28, is based on the true story of Indian scientists, their fight against the COVID-19 pandemic and how they developed an affordable vaccine for India and the world.
“A film called ’The Vaccine War’ was released. I have heard that the hard work done day and night by our scientists to fight Covid in India has been depicted in this film. Every Indian is feeling proud after watching that film,” PM Modi said during a rally.
