PM Modi meets maestro Ramesh Vinayakam; Takes break from campaigning to honour Indian music
During the interaction, the Prime Minister attempted to play Vande Mataram on a tablet under Vinayakam’s guidance, drawing laughter and praise from the composer, who jokingly called him “the best student.” As a symbolic gesture, Vinayakam presented PM Modi with a pencil, eraser, and blank manuscript – items he traditionally gives to his learners.
