The film was a big hit for Carrey, marking the first time that the famed Ace Ventura: Pet Detective star began to move beyond the slapstick style antics that had gained him so much attention up to that point. The Truman Show was a different type of film from anything that had ever been seen before, mainly because it arrived when the reality TV genre was still in its very early stages. MTV had gained a dedicated following with its series The Real World, in which a group of twenty-somethings lived together in docu-drama style. But the continuous surveillance of programming like Big Brother was still two years off. In that way, The Truman Show represented an idea that was vaguely familiar and brand new.
President Draupadi Murmu also posted a congratulatory message for India on X.
She said in the post, “My heartiest congratulations to Team India for winning the T20 World Cup. With the never-say-die spirit, the team sailed through difficult situations and demonstrated outstanding skills throughout the tournament. It was an extraordinary victory in the final match. Well done, Team India! We are proud of you!”
Vice President Jadgeep Dhankar said in his post that the country “is elated by the spectacular victory” of the Indian team.
He said in a post on X, “Bharat is elated by the spectacular victory of the Men in Blue in the #T20WorldCup2024! The stupendous performance by Team India throughout the tournament is a testament to their dedication and hard work. May they continue to bring glory to the nation. Heartiest congratulations!”
Union Sports and Youth Welfare Minister Mansukh Mandaviya also congratulated the Indian cricket team and said that it was a “splendid team effort”.
“With every beat of our hearts, 1.4 billion Indians celebrate this great victory! The nation beams with pride,” he added in a post on X.
Leader of the Opposition and Raebareli MP Rahul Gandhi said in a post on X, “Congratulations to Team India on a spectacular World Cup Victory and a phenomenal performance throughout the tournament! Surya, what a brilliant catch! Rohit, this win is a testament to your leadership. Rahul, I know team India will miss your guidance. The spectacular Men in Blue have made our country proud.”
