We danced with some children. Unfortunately, we were not able to schedule any dancing in this visit. Senorita, bade bade desho mein... you know what I mean," Obama said with a smile while addressing a Town hall event on the third and final day of his visit to India.

The US President picked Indian heroes like actor Shah Rukh Khan and sports icons like Milkha Singh and Mary Kom and Nobel laureate Kailash Satyarthi to make a point that courage and humanitarian values unify both the nations.
PM Narendra Modi had addressed the Global Citizen Festival at Central Park in New York in September 2013 and quoted Star Wars. Towards the end of his speech, the Prime Minister had said, “Thank you once again, for having me over. Thanks in particular, to Hugh Jackman here. God bless you all. May the Force be with You.”
