Sunita Williams alongside Butch Willmore and the team have safely returned to Earth after they got stuck in space following their space mission. For the uninitiated, they had initially planned for a few days to stay in space for their project on Boeing’s Starliner. However, because of the propulsion issues of their spacecraft, their stay was extended to nine long months. After various trials, they have finally come down to Earth with the help of Elon Musk’s SpaceX Crew Dragon, making all of us proud.

To celebrate their return, celebs from Bollywood to the South film industry and more, including Karisma Kapoor, Chiranjeevi, and R Madhavan have shared congratulatory messages. Social media has been flooded with people’s heartfelt cheers as they welcomed them back on Earth. Scroll ahead and find out who said what.

Taking X (previously known as Twitter) by storm, Chiranjeevi called Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore’s returning act ‘heroic and historic.’ His tweet can be read, “A true blue blockbuster”.
