Big Dawgs, a song by Hanumankind, has the internet buzzing. This high-octane single, released only a few weeks ago, has captivated audiences across the world with exciting images shot behind the 'wall of death.' Hanumankind (or HMK) is formally known as Sooraj Cherukat and has had a career as varied as his music.
Besides Hanumankind, artistes Aditya Gadhvi and Devi Sri Prasad also performed for PM Modi. Aditya took the globe by storm last year with his song Khalesi.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, moved by the music and the energy of the crowd, got up from his seat and proceeded to the stage. Aditya Gadhvi, visibly surprised, watched as Modi warmly approached him and gave him a big hug, even patting him on the back.
He also shared a video capturing the moment when PM Modi hugged him. Taking to Instagram, he wrote in Gujarati, “Modi ji came on stage and said, “Why the mischief?!” Then he met a few people and blessed them. I don’t really understand everything, but I’m just enjoying all the fun that’s happening…”
Achint created "Khalasi" by combining Gujarati folk music and pop-rock, resulting in a distinct sound that people enjoyed in India and abroad. Saumya Joshi's lyrics depict the narrative of a sailor exploring Gujarat's coasts, symbolizing adventure. The song went viral on short-form video platforms, receiving over 4.5 billion views and became a cultural smash.
