PM Modi Connects Youth Culture and Spiritual Roots at Melbourne Meet

Prime Minister Narendra Modi used the Melbourne Meets Modi platform to underline how India’s newer generation marries modern lifestyle with deep cultural roots. He identified the emerging "bhajan clubbing" practice as a vivid example of youth-led spaces where devotional singing meets social interaction.

He described typical weekend scenes across the Australian Indian community: gatherings for Satyanarayan katha, prayer sessions at gurudwaras, bhangra dances, Bharatanatyam performances, and even local cricket matches. Modi also previewed the upcoming Indian Film Festival in Melbourne, expressing confidence in its success. He reaffirmed India’s fast‑track journey toward a developed nation, championing the "grow more, achieve more" ethos that turns each achievement into a catalyst for newer dreams.
