American singer Mary Millben, after singing India's national anthem Jana Gana Mana, touched Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's feet to seek blessing at the concluding event for the prime minister's state visit. This video has gone viral in social media.

38-year-old Millben sang the Indian national anthem at an invitation-only programme, which was held at the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center in Washington DC. The event was hosted by the United States Indian Community Foundation (USICF).

Before the event, Millben had said that she was "deeply honoured" to get this opportunity of performing the Indian national anthem for Prime Minister Modi.

Such an honor to be with you today Prime Minister Narendra Modi, alongside UN General Assembly President Csaba Korosi, Richard Gere, NYC Mayor Eric Adams, Her Excellency Ruchira Kamboj, Permanent Representative of India to the United Nations, and all at the UN for this memorable day. We are delighted to have you in the United States for this important visit, Prime Minister Narendra Modi. I look forward to performing for you and guests on Friday in Washington, D.C. God bless you and the US-India alliance., twitted Millben after Yoga day.

A night I will treasure forever. Performing for His Excellency Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the concluding event of the PM’s Official State Arrival Visit to the United States. See last night’s post for the official performance airing from @DDNewslive.
