”It Will Certainly…”: PM Modi Reacts To Ricky Kej’s Rendition Of Indian National Anthem


PM praises Ricky Kej for performing National Anthem

New Delhi:

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday reacted to three-time Grammy award-winning musician Ricky Kej’s instrumental rendition of the Indian national anthem which he created in collaboration with the 100-member British Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.

Taking to Twitter, PM Modi wrote, โ€œWonderful. It will certainly make every Indian proud.โ€

Mr Kej released a 60-second video on the eve of Independence Day, August 14, as a gift to every Indian around the world.

This rendition of the Indian National Anthem recorded by the world’s largest Symphony Orchestra at London’s legendary Abbey Road Studios will be released on Independence Day.

Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Mr Kej shared the video and captioned it, โ€œA few days ago, I conducted a 100-piece British orchestra, The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra to perform India’s National Anthem at the legendary Abbey Road Studios, London. This is the largest orchestra ever to record India’s National Anthem and it is spectacular! The “Jaya He” at the end gave me goosebumps. Felt great as an Indian composer ๐Ÿ™‚ I am sharing this historic recording with every one of you this Independence Day – use it, share it, and watch it, but with respect ๐Ÿ™‚ It is yours now. Jai Hind. Happy #independenceday #Rickykej @narendramodi.โ€

Sharing his excitement about the anthem, the 3-time Grammy-winning Composer told ANI, “I am feeling huge pride. We are a new India. We are participating in international decisions like climate change and global economics. In fact, other countries are taking leadership from us. This anthem is a representation of the new India with the largest orchestra of 100 members of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra to ever record the Indian national anthem.”

This is not Mr Kej’s first performance on this occasion. In 2022, he performed the anthem with 12 refugee singers from India. The singers were from Myanmar, Afghanistan, and Cameron, among other places.

Mr Kej created the definitive version of the anthem by collaborating with the renowned Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in London which has added a unique touch.
