Prime Minister, Narendra Modi has become one of the most popular political faces globally. He was the Chief Minister of Gujarat from 2001 to 2014 and is a Member of Parliament for Varanasi. PM Modi is the longest-serving prime minister outside the Indian National Congress.
Prime Minister, Narendra Modi was asked about the ‘Melodi’ meme during his podcast with Nikhil Kamath
Prime Minister, Narendra Modi entered the podcast with Nikhil Kamath’s ‘People’ series on January 10, 2025. The conversation covered a spectrum of topics. The Prime Minister opened up about his childhood, education, and work, among other topics. As the conversation reached its conclusion, Nikhil steered to a more laid-back conversation and even hinted at PM Modi’s Italy connection. He was quoted saying:
“My favourite food is pizza. And pizza is from Italy. And people say you know a lot about Italy. Would you like to say something about that?”
However, when he didn’t get a response from Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, he asked the latter if he had seen the memes. The co-founder of Zerodha asked, referring to the viral memes linking PM Modi with Italian PM, Giorgia Meloni. For the unversed, social media is often flooded with memes that highlight the Indian PM’s rapport with the Italian Prime Minister. Nikhil Kamath asked PM Modi, “Haven’t you seen these memes?”
Prime Minister, Narendra Modi reacts to Nikhil Kamath’s ‘Melodi’ comment
Prime Minister, Narendra Modi responded to Nikhil Kamath’s question and stated that he hadn’t seen the memes. He added that things like these keep happening, so he doesn’t pay attention to them. For the uninitiated, in June 2024, Prime Minister Georgia Meloni posted a video of her and PM Modi with the hashtag ‘Melodi’ team. In the video, PM Meloni could be heard stating ‘Hello from the Melodi team’ while PM Modi laughed beside her. In a conversation with Nikhil Kamath, PM Modi stated:
“Nahi, vo toh chalta rehta hai. Main usmein apna time kharab nahi karta.”
Prime Minister, Modi revealed that he is not a foodie
Prime Minister, Narendra Modi then shifted the discussion towards food, following Nikhil Kamath’s original topic about Italian cuisine. During the conversation, the PM revealed that he is not a foodie and that whatever he is served, he just tries and relishes it. He further stated that he wouldn’t be able to order from the menu if asked, to which Nikhil interjected and questioned if the PM could visit a restaurant. PM Modi was quoted saying:
“I am not a foodie. Absolutely not. That is why I relish whatever I am served in whichever country. However, it is my bad fortune that if you take me to a restaurant, hand me the menu and ask me to choose, I won’t be able to do it. No, I can’t go right now. It has been many years.”
