PM Modi Says 'Jai Hanuman' as He Greets Hanumankind After 'Modi & US' Performance; Video Goes Viral

Rapper Hanumankind brought the house down at the ‘Modi & US’ event in New York. The event was attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi along with thousands of Indian-Americans. Videos from the event shared online revealed that Kerala-origin, Bengaluru based rapper and songwriter Hanumankind took the centre stage and performed his hit single Big Dawgs for PM Modi and the audience.

His electrifying performance had everyone grooving in their seats. After the performance, PM Modi met with him and other artists who performed for him. While greeting Hanumankind, the Prime Minister was heard saying, ‘Jai Hanuman’ before he hugged Hanumankind and shook his hand, seemingly praising him for his performance. Watch the videos below:

Besides Hanumankind, artists Aditya Gadhvi and Devi Sri Prasad performed for PM Modi as well. Aditya had taken the world by storm last year with his song Khalesi.

Hanumankind has the internet buzzing with his song, Big Dawgs. This high-octane track, released just a few weeks ago, has captivated audiences worldwide with its electrifying visuals shot inside the ‘wall of death.’ Hanumankind (or HMK) is formally known as Sooraj Cherukat and has had a journey as diverse as his music.

Born in Kerala, India, Cherukat’s early life was marked by constant relocations, with his family moving from country to country before finally settling in Houston, Texas. This global upbringing exposed him to a wide range of cultural influences and musical styles, shaping his unique artistic voice.
