Born in December 26, 1929, Mehta was honoured with Padma Shri in 2015. Reminiscing about his meeting with Mehta, Modi said: “I have had the privilege of meeting Mehta several times. I also got a chance to meet him when he was honoured with the Padma Shri. His work reflects unity in diversity in India.” Mehta’s famous works include “Duniya Ne Undha Chasma”, which inspired the hit Hindi sitcom “Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah”.
