Shah Rukh Khan's tweet for ISRO on Chandrayaan 3's moon landing with an iconic song

India etched its name in lunar history as it successfully landed its spacecraft, Chandrayaan-3, on the Moon's enigmatic South Pole on August 23.

Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan echoed the nation's sentiment as he congratulated ISRO for the remarkable achievement that made India the first nation to achieve a soft landing on the moon’s untapped region.

"Chaand Taare todh laoon… Saari Duniya par main chhaoon. Aaj India aur @isro chhaa gaya. Congratulations to all the scientists and engineers…the whole team which has made India so proud. Chandrayaan-3 has successfully soft-landed on the moon,” SRK tweeted with a picture.

The tweet starts with lyrics from his iconic song "Bas itna sa khwab hai" from his movie "Yes Boss".
This achievement positions India as the fourth country in history to achieve a successful Moon landing. The successful touchdown at the Moon's South Pole holds significance due to its potential water-rich composition.

The culmination of the Chandrayaan-3 mission was marked by a nerve-wracking "17 minutes of terror," as described by ISRO officials. During this crucial phase, the lander's engines had to be ignited with pinpoint accuracy, guiding it to the lunar surface while meticulously scanning for potential obstacles.
