On the 86th birth anniversary of former President A P J Abdul Kalam on Sunday, veteran actor Anupam Kher said that he feels blessed to have spent some life-changing experiences with him.
To celebrate Kalam’s birth anniversary, Anupam shared a photograph on Twitter in which he can be seen receiving the Padma Shri — the country’s fourth highest civilian honour — from Kalam.
“Feel blessed to have met and spend some life changing moments with honourable A.P.J. Abdul Kalam ji. Remembering him on his birth anniversary,” Anupam captioned the image.
Born on October 15, 1931, Kalam was President of India from July 25, 2002 till July 25, 2007.
Anupam, who can currently be seen onscreen in his maiden production venture Ranchi Diaries, received the Padma Shri in 2004.
