Veteran film producer Boney Kapoor has come forward to commend Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, expressing admiration for the transformational changes India has witnessed under his tenure. In a recent interaction, Kapoor didn’t hold back in acknowledging the PM’s role in shaping India’s current global stature, calling him a “visionary leader who has redefined India’s image on the world stage.”
Kapoor, who has been a prominent figure in the Indian film industry for decades and is known for backing pathbreaking cinema, highlighted how the country’s socio-economic and diplomatic trajectory has taken a significant upward turn over the last decade. “We are no longer just seen as a developing nation. Under Prime Minister Modi’s guidance, India has emerged as a powerful voice globally—whether in terms of economic growth, international diplomacy, or technological innovation,” he said.
The producer emphasized that Modi’s ability to lead with conviction and clarity has been one of the key reasons behind India’s growing influence on the global map. “What makes him truly stand out is the foresight with which he plans. He’s not just thinking about the present; he’s preparing India for the next 25 years. That kind of long-term thinking is rare and admirable,” Kapoor noted.
Kapoor also remarked on the government’s focus on modernizing infrastructure, improving ease of doing business, and championing initiatives like Digital India, Make in India, and Startup India—all of which, he believes, have empowered both traditional and emerging sectors. “The kind of digital transformation India has seen in recent years is remarkable. Today, we’re talking about AI, semiconductor manufacturing, and space exploration as real areas of growth. That’s a sign of bold governance,” he added.
When asked about India’s growing cultural and cinematic influence abroad, Kapoor pointed out that Modi’s consistent support of Indian heritage and arts has also helped elevate the global perception of the country’s soft power. “There’s a greater global appreciation for Indian storytelling, cinema, and creativity. And part of that is because our leadership has made it a point to celebrate and promote Indian culture wherever possible.”
Kapoor’s words reflect a broader sentiment echoed by several public figures who have credited Modi’s leadership with ushering in a new era of self-confidence and progress in India. “He has a deep understanding of India’s roots but also the ambition to take it far into the future. That rare blend is what defines a true visionary,” Kapoor said in closing.
As the nation continues to navigate a complex and fast-evolving world, Kapoor’s remarks add to the growing chorus of voices from the entertainment industry recognizing the strides made under PM Modi’s leadership.
