Dhanush was the special invitee at the dinner hosted by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh for his Japanese counterpart, Yoshihiko Noda, in New Delhi on Wednesday.

'It's a great honour to dine with the Prime Ministers of India and Japan. It's you guys who made it possible. I'm glad God gave me an opportunity to make my parents proud. ' the actor wrote on his microblogging page.

Dhanush was invited to the dinner as a congrulatory gesture for the stupendous success of 'Why this kolaveri di ', a song penned and sung by Dhanush for his forthcoming film "3".

"Why This Kolaveri Di"  has become famous in many parts of the world and has smashed records on YouTube and was even aired on CNN in the US. It has become a rage in Japan too, where the song is played in parties and clubs.
