At the press meet, Arjun said, “As an Indian standing in the country’s capital, I believe India will lead the future of the world. India will be the leading country in the world.”
Switching to Hindi, he also expressed, “Ye naya Bharat hai, ye ab rukega nahi, ye kabhi jhukega nahi (This is the new India, it won’t stop or bow down).”
