Navratri season is our favourite season because it’s the fusion season. Fusion music, fusion looks and sometimes, a few fusion recipes too. However, one crossover we did not see coming was an exciting fusion of politics and music, the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi, ventured into the world of songwriting, penning the lyrics for a Garba-themed song. This creative action marks a unique departure for the leader of the world’s largest democracy, showcasing his multifaceted talents beyond his political career. The Garba song titled Garbo has been sung by the talented Dhvani Bhanushali and has been making waves since it was released as a music video under the guidance of Tanishk Bagchi.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a social media star who has huge following. He never disappoints his fans and keeps them updated through Instagram and X. He also shared the news of him being the lyricist through his social media. The lyrics of Garbo were written by the Prime Minister long before and now was sung by Dhvani Bhanushali in her mesmerising voice.
This isn’t the first time Prime Minister Modi has tried his hand at songwriting. In 2019, his poem Shyam Ke Rogan Rele was transformed into a song for the web series Modi: The Journey Of A Common Man. The song, voiced by Sonu Nigam and composed by Salim-Sulaiman, resonated with audiences and further established the Prime Minister’s creative abilities. He also wrote the lyrics to another Navratri special recently titled Maadi.
Dhvani Bhanushali, a rising star in the Indian pop music scene, is at the forefront of this artistic collaboration. She gained widespread recognition with her 2019 single, Vaaste, which has accumulated over 1.4 billion views on YouTube, making her the youngest and fastest Indian pop star to reach this remarkable milestone. The singer has showcased her versatility and creativity, making her an ideal choice to bring Prime Minister Modi’s lyrics to life in a fresh and innovative way.
Dhvani Bhanushali, the voice behind Garbo, shared the news of the collaboration with Prime Minister Modi and Tanishk Bagchi on her social media platforms. In her tweet, she expressed her admiration for the Garba penned by the Prime Minister and her desire to infuse it with a fresh rhythm, composition, and flavor. The project was brought to life with the help of Jjust Music, the music label owned by actor Jackky Bhagnani, who echoed the sentiment that Garbo is a tribute to cultural heritage and the essence of Navratri.
In a response to Dhvani Bhanushali’s tweet, Prime Minister Modi expressed his appreciation for the rendition of Garbo, emphasising that it brought back many memories. He also revealed that he had written a new Garba song (Maadi) over the last few days, which he intends to share during the upcoming Navratri festival.
Garbo, the Garba-themed song, is a creative blend of Prime Minister Modi’s lyrical abilities and the musical genius of Tanishk Bagchi, a renowned composer in the Indian music industry and the cherry on the top is Dhvani Bhanushali’s fun touch to it. The song celebrates the spirit of Navratri. The choice of Garba as the song’s theme is particularly apt, as it is a dance form integral to Navratri celebrations, signifying joy and unity.
This unique collaboration between Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Dhvani Bhanushali, and Tanishk Bagchi not only showcases the multifaceted nature of India’s leader but also highlights the unifying power of music and culture, particularly during festive occasions like Navratri. Garbo promises to be an integral part of Navratri celebrations for many years, showcasing the enduring fusion of art, tradition, and creativity in India’s rich cultural landscape.
