During the meeting, Prime Minister Modi praised Diljit’s success, telling him, "Your family named it Dil Jeet, so you keep winning." These words reflected the deep admiration the Prime Minister had for the multi-talented artist, whose impact transcends the music and film industries.
Diljit, who has made it his mission to spread positivity through his art, shared his personal reflections on India’s significance. He stated, "We used to read about it, ‘My India, Great,’ and when I traveled across India, I realized why people say that – truly, the greatness of India is its power." This heartfelt comment highlighted the artist's growing admiration for the country’s rich cultural and spiritual heritage.
Furthermore, Diljit spoke with deep reverence about Prime Minister Modi, saying, “I had seen your interview, sir, and now when I think of it, the position of Prime Minister is very high for us, but behind it, there’s a mother, a son, and a person. Many times, people forget that the heart is very big. When you carry your mother and Ganga Maiya with you, it fills your heart. That touch is very special."
A rare and delightful moment during the meeting occurred when Diljit began to sing a song, and PM Modi, in a joyful show of support, was seen tapping beats on the table. The two shared a light-hearted moment, reflecting the warmth of their connection.
