Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman Saturday said India is a land of opportunities and those who had gone abroad to earn their living were returning.
"I have heard in my younger days that America is a land of opportunities. But, today, our country is a land of opportunities and those who had gone far away (to earn their living) are returning...," she said, after watching the special screening of Tamil dubbed version of movie "Chalo Jeete Hain" here.
The film which runs for 32 minutes, is inspired by the early life of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and a special screening was held at Satyam Cinemas here Saturday.
In her brief speech, Sitharaman said, those who have gone abroad were returning to India since a conducive atmosphere offering growth was prevailing here.
She said, "the message (from the film) is... if we take steps to benefit the society we live in, it will spread as a goodwill to others."
