Rishi Sunak's appointment as Britain's third Prime Minister on October 25 is an historic event. The 42-year-old, born to parents having Indian descent, is the first person of colour to have earned this powerful position. His achievement has made India proud. Much like him, there are many other Indians like Satyda Nadela, Microsoft, Executive Chairman and CEO of Microsoft, Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google, and others who have been making the country proud worldwide. Actor Anuj Sachdeva shares his thoughts on Sunak's glory and why he thinks this should be perceived differently.

Anuj said, "We must not forget that he is someone who has replaced the first candidate Liz Truss, who resigned given the present economic crisis of the country. And, Sunak has vouched to look into the situation and find a solution to it for the better"

He added, "So, he is not the elected Prime Minister but the selected one. On the other hand, it's a remarkable thing that anyone can be the President or Prime Minister of a region, even someone from a different descent. This actually opens the gates for people to think beyond the box and break all the limits that have been created for the last so many years".
