Mumbai/New Delhi (National Times): In a move that has delighted fans and created waves online, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has officially followed singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh on the microblogging site X.
Their meeting earlier this year had already drawn attention, with images of PM Modi and Diljit sharing a light moment making the rounds on social media. Now, with this digital acknowledgment, speculation is rife about the growing bond between India’s political leadership and its entertainment icons.
Diljit Dosanjh, who has amassed a global following thanks to his music, Bollywood hits, and recent Hollywood appearances, remains one of Punjab’s most influential voices. PM Modi’s gesture is being widely seen as a nod to the immense cultural impact the artist has had, not just in Punjab, but internationally.
Political experts suggest that this is more than a social media interaction — it’s a subtle yet strategic signal of mutual respect and influence. Fans, meanwhile, are celebrating the interaction as a “crossover we didn’t expect but love to see.”
