Bollywood blockbuster Bajrangi Bhaijaan gave momentum to a campaign to reunite Geeta with her family.

Bollywood actor Salman Khan supported the government’s effort to bring back Geeta and unite her with her rightful parents, just as he did in his runaway hit “Bajrangi Bhaijaan”.

External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj intervened and asked the Indian High Commissioner to Pakistan, Dr TCA Raghavan, and his wife to visit Geeta.

Geeta today arrived in New Delhi to meet her long-lost family.
