The Kapoor family met Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday in Delhi for a special meeting regarding the upcoming Raj Kapoor 100 Film Festival. Present during the interaction were Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Karisma Kapoor, Neetu Kapoor, and Riddhima Kapoor Sahni. A video shared by the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) captured the Kapoor family sharing their experiences following the meeting with the PM.
During the meeting, a light-hearted moment occurred when actress Alia Bhatt asked Prime Minister Modi if he gets time to listen to music. She playfully inquired, “Kya aap gaane sun paate hain?" (Do you get time to listen to music?).
PM Modi responded with a simple yet charming reply and said, “Main sun pata hoon kyunki mujhe achha lagta hai. Kabhi mauka mil jata hai toh main zaroor sun leta hoon.” (I do listen because I enjoy it. Whenever I get the chance, I listen). Alia Bhatt also shared with the Prime Minister that she had recently seen a clip of him in Africa, where he was standing with a soldier who was singing her song.
Alia said, “I think aap Africa gaye the. Maine wahan pe bhi ek clip dekha tha kuch jawan ke sath khade the aur vo uss time mera gana gaa rahe the. But maine vo clip dekha tha. Kafi logo ne mujhe bheja tha aur sab log bahut khush ho gaye.” (Recently, I think you went to Africa. I saw a clip where some soldiers were singing my song. Many people sent me that clip, and everyone felt so happy).
