Anand G. Mahindra Over a decade ago when Narendra Modi visited Mumbai and invited businessmen to invest in <keyword id="6354766" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Gujarat">Gujarat</keyword>, I remember thinking to myself: 'This man is different'.

The last couple of years have been quite revealing. Under a visionary leader, India's potential, which was never quite in doubt, has suddenly found new meaning, and more importantly, acceptance and respect among global audiences at the highest level. The eloquence with which the PM communicated India's vision for the world...the way his charismatic statesmanship gets applauded, it makes each and every Indian proud. 
 
Cyrus P Mistry One of my first meetings I had, along with <keyword id="3660053" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="mr-ratan-tata">Mr Ratan Tata</keyword>, after assuming a new role in <keyword id="8555" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Tata">Tata</keyword> group in 2012, was with Mr Narendra Modi. I remember going into the meeting thinking that this would entail the standard exchange of pleasantries. That day, I came out of the meeting having learnt an important lesson in leadership. 
 
Anil Ambani I recall the first time I met <keyword id="1267365" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Narendrabhai">Narendrabhai</keyword> in the 1990s when my father <keyword id="6418409" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Dhirubhai-Ambani">Dhirubhai Ambani</keyword> invited him home for dinner. At the end of the conversation, Papa remarked: "<keyword id="110806" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Lambi">Lambi</keyword> race no ghodo chhe, leader chhe, PM banse - he's a thoroughbred for the long run, a true leader, he will be prime minister.

Today, there is an air of confidence, a 'can do' feeling. Narendra Modi's has put in place the foundation for strong and sustained economic growth that benefits everyone. Not surprisingly, there has been a distinct improvement in the ease of doing business in India. Above all, Mr Modi is a man of integrity, a man of character, and that is what resonates the most.

It’s not the first time that there has been a huge recent outcry over brand ambassadors and the ‘increased reasonability’ they should take up. The latest has been about the overt lead and MSG content found in Nestlé’s Maggi noodles and the stars involved in its advertisements. 
 
Bollywood biggies Amitabh Bachchan, Madhuri Dixit and Preiti Zinta have cases filed against them under Indian Penal Code Sections 270 (act likely to spread dangerous disease), 273 (sale of toxic food or drinks), 276 (sale of drug as a different mixture) and 420 (cheating). 
 
Madhuri recently tweeted: 
 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en">
	
		Nestle has reassured me that they adhere to stringent testing for quality and safety and are working with the authorities closely.
	— Madhuri Dixit-Nene (@MadhuriDixit) <a href="https://twitter.com/MadhuriDixit/status/604648165258723328">May 30, 2015</a></blockquote>
While Preiti Zinta protested saying: 
 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en">
	 Reading the news about me being sued for doing the <keyword id="13633" type="PERSON" weightage="80" keywordseo="Maggie">Maggie</keyword> commercial over 12 years ago ? 12 years ago ? How does that happen ?
	— Preity zinta (@realpreityzinta) <a href="https://twitter.com/realpreityzinta/status/605977867436974081">June 3, 2015</a></blockquote>
Most industry experts are united that brand ambassadors should go scot free. 
 
“If anyone’s accountable it’s the directors and executives of the company. No ambassador has the ability to do industrial research on products they endorse”, Arvind Singhal, Chairman at Management Consulting firm Technopak observes. 
 
Would this scare celebrities off liquor ads passed off as soda, pan masala, or anything that might get them into trouble? 
 
“It actually varies person to person. These brands are sold legally and allowed to advertise. It may be a beverage to someone, and it’s their choice. Any tobacco advertising and direct alcohol advertising are not allowed anyway. After this, if anyone declines to star in a fairness cream ad saying they have moral issues, we should respect that,” Piyush Pandey, Executive Chairman and Creative Director, Ogilvy &amp; Mather India and South Asia says. 
 
Maggi noodles has been hauled for higher Lead and MSG content. Lead concentration above the prescribed limit of 2.5 ppm may lead to anemia, abdominal ache and heart palpitation. Long term effects include permanent damage to organs.

Not just this, but Big B also declined the reports saying "I have not received any notice yet. So I cannot make any comment. If it (notice) is received, my lawyers shall attend to it. It would be inappropriate to comment on a matter that is subjudice." 
 "It's sad and true that known faces get targeted for the wrong reasons and agendas just to seek attention.

"If a product has been passed by the FDA, why would a celebrity not believe that all is in place? Yes, it merits an investigation but in the case of anything being amiss, the primary responsibility lies with the FDA not the stars. It is a completely irrelevant fact, it is just that everyone feels important by association with the stars," he added.
