All eyes are currently on the grand inauguration ceremony of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya on January 22. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be inaugurating the grand temple built in Ayodhya. For the consecration ceremony, nearly 8000 people have been invited from the fields of politics, sports, religion, and cinema. 'The Kashmir Files' director Vivek Agnihotri has also been extended an invitation to the ceremony. However, he has informed on X (formerly Twitter) that he will not be able to attend the Ram Mandir inauguration. 


Vivek took to X and shared his invitation to the 'Pran Patishtha' ceremony, and explained why he wouldn't be able to make it. 'The Kashmir Files' director also expressed his surprise at the way the whole event has been planned. He wrote, “I was pleasantly surprised to receive many follow-up calls from the office of CM @myogiadityanath Ji. The lady asked me for travel details in an extremely warm but professional manner. Mighty impressed with the way technology is used to ensure a comfortable and safe visit for all". 


Vivek further revealed that he will not be in India on Monday and hence will be skipping the inauguration ceremony. He added, “It’s unfortunate that I am not being able to attend #PranPratishtha as I am not in Bharat on 22nd Jan for some inevitable reason and only Ram ji knows how sad I am. #RamMandir," he wrote without getting into the details of his journey outside the country. 


Meanwhile, film personalities like Amitabh Bachchan, Rajinikanth, Chiranjeevi, Ram Charan, Dhanush, Akshay Kumar, Kangana Ranaut, Randeep Hooda, Jackie Shroff, Alia Bhatt, Ranbir Kapoor, Ayushmann Khurrana, Anushka Sharma and several others have been invited for the Ram Mandir inauguration in Ayodhya.

On Sunday, actor Anupam Kher, who has been a vocal supporter of the ruling party at the center and a staunch Hindu, took to his Instagram handle to share a video informing his followers about his visit to Ayodhya. The actor shared his thoughts as he is set to fly to Ayodhya today for the ceremony. He said that it is a big day for devotees from across the world.
