Drone Show, Massive Event Held In Pune
The celebrations extended beyond Mumbai. In Pune, a spectacular 3D drone show titled 'Jyotine Tejachi Aarti' was held at the SP College Ground. Using nearly 1,000 drones, the 45-minute performance highlighted the achievements of the Modi government alongside Pune’s social, cultural, and historical heritage.
The show drew large crowds and marked the first time Maharashtra hosted a drone display of this scale, following similar events earlier organised in Ayodhya and Varanasi. Accompanying the visual spectacle, singer and composer Avadhoot Gupte performed a mix of popular tracks and patriotic songs, adding a musical dimension to the celebrations.
Internationally, iconic locations also joined the tribute. In London, the digital screens at Piccadilly Circus displayed a portrait of the Prime Minister with the message: “Warm birthday wishes, celebrating 75 years.” The bustling New York landmark Times Square also showcased images of PM Modi, extending greetings on his milestone birthday.
