Meet Bros: Bowled over by PM Narendra Modi’s talent

It was perhaps their work in the Kartik Aaryan-fronted film Satyaprem Ki Katha that the Meet Bros believed paved the way for their first collaboration with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. “We worked on Gujarati tracks in the film, and perhaps that’s what they liked. They reached out for a Gujarati number to Punjabi composers, and that speaks volumes about the fact that our PM supports individuals regardless of their religion, creed, caste, or colour,” says Manmeet Singh of the duo, adding that they had to work on strict deadlines to bring Maadi to life.

“We were told to attempt it only if we could do so within four hours. We cracked the composition within one hour and sent it over. While there were changes, they loved the composition and said that it was precisely what they were looking for,” says Manmeet.


The Navratri track that has been penned by Modi, says Harmeet, appeared to have been written by a professional lyricist. “It was perfectly structured. His talent bowled us over. We always wanted to work on a garba track, which is like a prayer to Mata. In Gujarati, maadi means ma. The song speaks of how important her blessings are. We celebrate her inner beauty.”

Music milestone

October 1997: This month marks 26 years since the release of the musical film, Dil Toh Pagal Hai. It is suggested that composer Uttam Singh created 100 tunes for it. Only nine were selected.
