amazing coincidence
While India is celebrating its 75th year of independence on one hand, the diplomatic relations between India and France are also completing 75 years in 2022. Moreover, this is also the 75th year of the Cannes Film Festival. Before the start of Cannes, PM Narendra Modi also wished all the celebs and their team who were going to participate there. PM Modi said that it is a coincidence that 75 years of Indo-French relations, 75 years of independence and Cannes Film Festival are being celebrated together.
