WATCH: PM Modi Ends His Speech At ICAI To Darth Vader's Imperial March

May the force be with us.

Star Wars and the Indian Prime Minister made a surprise appearance at the Central Park, New York, in 2014, when Narendra Modi threw the famous phrase from the movie at his audience: "May the force be with you".

Amid the hullaballoo that followed, the association seemed to have stuck. Else how would anyone explain the grand finale of the PM's speech, hosted by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) in New Delhi on Saturday, to the soundtrack of Darth Vader's Imperial March?

Here is that moment, in case you missed it, or want to savour it some more.

Whoever was inspired to use this overture most probably didn't know the whole story of Darth Vader and his association with the dark side. Either way, we wonder what happened to them afterwards.
