Vikram has shared his own piece of experience of meeting Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalamwhen the actor was blessed with an opportunity to meet India's greatest visionary when he was serving the nation as the President.
Walking down the memory lane with a heavy heart, the National Award winning actor has said, "I was very excited the moment I came to know that he wanted to meet me. I wanted to make sure my kids Akshita and Dhruv get to meet Mr. Kalam as he is a great inspiration for young minds."
Though Vikram says he was happy that his kids got to speak to him and were made to sit on his lap, what India's President back then had told him would reverberate in Vikram's mind forever.
The missile man of our country has said, "I have not seen movies in the past 25 years but I know your hard work and I want you to become like Nadigar Thilagam Sivaji Ganesan".
Vikram says he was dumbstruck when those words flew out of the great man's mouth. Vikram went on to add that he would never forget that day and Abdul Kalam's demise is indeed a great loss to our country.
