Attributing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He said, "I believe that if we have to give credit to one person, then we will give it to Modi ji because of the way he has worked and spread the energy throughout, although I have accepted that whenever such work is done, it is not done by one person. The one who has spread all the positive energy is Modi ji. And the rest is collective work; everyone has worked a lot for many years, and many people have made sacrifices and are still working. So, whatever is happening, it's a lifetime event."
Several actors such as Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Rajinikanth, Dhanush and others have received invites to attend the joyous celebration in Ayodhya.
Beginning one week prior to the major event, on January 16, Vedic rites will be performed in Ayodhya for the Pran-Pratishtha of Ram Lalla (baby Lord Ram).
