Millet Song Featuring PM Modi Gets Grammy Nomination
'Abundance in Millets', a song featuring PM Narendra Modi, has received a nomination at the 2024 Grammy Awards.
The song has secured a nomination in the Best Global Music Performance category and is crafted by Falu and Gaurav Shah.

The year 2023 has been designated as the 'International Year of Millets' after a proposal for it was brought forward by India and endorsed by Members of the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) Governing Bodies, as well as by the 75th Session of the UN General Assembly.
"Prime Minister Modi has written a song with me and my husband Gaurav Shah," Falu had told PTI ahead of the song's release.
Falu said the idea to write a song about millets came to her when she met Modi in New Delhi last year after her Grammy win.
She said Prime Minister Modi suggested to her she should write a song with a message of ending hunger during their discussion on the power of music to bring change and uplift humanity.
Since music transcends boundaries, Prime Minister Modi suggested writing a song on millets, she said.
Falu said Modi told her that India promotes millets because it is a super grain and has immense health and nutritional value.
She said she very "naively" asked the prime minister if he would write the song with her and he agreed.
Millets were among the first crops to be domesticated in India with several evidence of its consumption during the Indus Valley civilization.
Grown in more than 130 countries at present, millets are considered traditional food for more than half a billion people across Asia and Africa.
Other nominees in the category include: Arooj Aftab, Vijay Iyer & Shahzad Ismaily - Shadow Forces, Burna Boy - Alone, Davido - Feel, Silvana Estrada - Milagro Y Disastre, Béla Fleck, Edgar Meyer & Zakir Hussain ft. Rakesh Chaurasia - Pashto. Ibrahim Maalouf ft. Cimafunk & Tank and the Bangas - Todo Colores.
