BENGALURU: Actor-director Rishab Shetty met Union Home Minister Amit Shah, on Saturday, who appreciated the way the actor presented Indian civilisation and culture with sensitivity and depth through his films.
Shah said Shetty’s work is “genuinely admirable” and leaves a lasting impact. Shetty said the meeting was one of the most memorable moments of his career.
