In a historic moment on Wednesday, Chandrayaan-3 successfully landed on the moon’s surface at 6.04 p.m. This makes India part of the elite moon landing club which earlier only included the USA, Russia and China.

Celebrities and members of the film fraternity were ecstatic about this feat by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). Actors Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, Ram Charan, Ajay Devgn, Hrithik Roshan and Prakash Raj, were among others who congratulated the scientists on this marvellous achievement.

Big B shared an evocative post on his socials - a composite image of the moon and the tricolour with words from the heart: "For far too long when India was referred to, it was spoken of as a third world country and I hated it. Today I am proud to say India is first world in more ways than one." He signed off with "Bharat Mata ki jai" and "Vande Mataram" written in Hindi.

Shah Rukh Khan used a couplet from his song ‘Chaand Taare’ from the 1997 film Yes Boss as he congratulated the scientists and engineers. He took to X (formerly Twitter) and wrote, “Chaand Taare todh laoon….Saari Duniya par main chhaoon. Aaj india aur @isro chhaa gaya. Congratulations to all the scientists and engineers…the whole team which has made India so proud. Chandrayaan-3 has successfully soft-landed on the moon. #Chandrayaan."

Salman Khan also took to X on the occasion and wrote, "Congratulations to all the scientists at @isro as #Chandrayaan3 has successfully soft-landed on the moon. The entire country is proud. Bharat Mata Ki Jai!"

Another Bollywood icon Akshay Kumar, who starred in a film on India’s Mars mission Mission Mangal (2019), wrote, "A billion hearts saying THANK YOU ISRO. You've made us so proud. Lucky to be watching India make history. India is on the moon, we are over the moon. #Chandrayaan3."

Even actor Prakash Raj, who has been facing the heat over his previous tweet on the space mission, said that the achievement is a "proud moment for India." "Thank you #ISRO #Chandrayaan3 #VikramLander and to everyone who contributed to make this happen .. may this guide us to Explore and Celebrate the mystery of our UNIVERSE .."

Ajay Devgn wrote on social media, "Proud, amazed, excited, honoured to be living this moment of history. Bharat Mata ki Jai #Chandrayaan".

RRR star Ram Charan called the event a “remarkable achievement in India’s space programme”. “Congratulations to ISRO for their exceptional work and for taking us closer to the cosmos!” he wrote on X.

Hrithik Roshan reshared ISRO’s tweet on the moon landing and wrote, "My heart swells with pride a little more today, as I witness my people soar high and give their very best. Congratulations & all my respect to @isro & the geniuses behind #Chandrayaan3's lunar exploration mission. #IndiaOnTheMoon."

Vijay Deverakonda, who is awaiting the release of his upcoming film Kushi, also wrote on Instagram, "Those smilesss :) That joy & pride across the country.. Kushiiii."

Vijay's Kushi co-star Samantha Ruth Prabhu also took to social media to express her joy as she wrote, "Yet again, we land on the Moon! Jai Hind. Congratulations @isro.in #Chandrayaan3."

Action hero Tiger Shroff wrote, “Mission accomplished…history made. Jai Hind Congratulations @isro.in @isroindiaofficial."

Actor Rashmika Mandana, from Pushpa: The Rise, celebrated the moment. She wrote in her Instagram Story, "A proud moment for all of us as #Chandrayaan3 lands on the moon today... Respect and salute to each and every one who worked on and supported this mission."

Actor Taapsee Pannu also wrote in her Instagram Story, "@isro.in and @chandrayan_3 Congratulations @isro.in We did it #Chandrayaan3."
