Mukesh Ambani and Shah Rukh Khan connect over Rs 31 ORS packets at PM Modi's oath ceremony; internet responds: 'I've had the same!'
PTC News Desk: Among the VIP attendees at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's oath-taking ceremony on Sunday at Rashtrapati Bhavan were billionaire Mukesh Ambani and actor Shah Rukh Khan. The internet is buzzing with the picture of the Bollywood star and business mogul chatting over tetra packages of ORS.
Social media users were moved by the image of two of India's most well-known individuals—characterized by opulence—holding the simple beverage.
X user Rohit stated, "Bas itna ameer hona hai ki aise ORS pee saku (I want to be just rich enough to drink this ORS)".

Users commented on Ambani and Khan being seen with the ORS packets in a Reddit thread that was also inspired by the occasion.
It's superior to all of that soda. This suits the weather just fine. It's better to take measures because he recently suffered from a heat stroke, a Reddit member added. The 58-year-old Shah Rukh Khan was hospitalized in Ahmedabad last month following a heat stroke.
A different Reddit user said, "I drank that same ORS today."
Shah Rukh Khan, Gautam Adani, and other attendees at PM Modi's oath of office were joined by Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani, who was accompanied by his son-in-law Anand Piramal and younger son Anant Ambani.
Billionaire Gautam Adani, together with his brother Rajesh Adani and wife Priti, attended the oath ceremony as well.
In a moment that went viral, Shah Rukh Khan, who came at the event with his manager Pooja Dadlani, was seen giving actor Akshay Kumar a hug. Other celebs present at Rashtrapati Bhavan included megastar Rajinikanth, Anupam Kher, Anil Kapoor, Raveena Tandon, Vikrant Massey, and Rajkumar Hirani.
Kangana Ranaut, the actor who was elected from Mandi, was present at the function.
For the first time ever, Prime Minister Narendra Modi took office as leader of the opposition. On Sunday night, he was sworn in with members of his council of ministers. Almost 8,000 individuals crammed into the Rashtrapati Bhavan forecourt on Sunday night to witness Modi's inauguration as prime minister.
