PM Modi’s Podcast Debut: Talks Technology, Entrepreneurship, and ‘Melodi’ Memes

Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently made headlines with his podcast debut on Zerodha co-founder Nikhil Kamath’s series, People By WTF. In the episode, PM Modi delved into topics ranging from his childhood experiences to India’s technological advancements and the synergy between politics and entrepreneurship.

The name “Melodi” is a playful blend of “Modi” and “Meloni,” and these memes resurface every time the two leaders meet.

During the conversation, Kamath humorously linked his favorite food—Pizza, a quintessential Italian dish—with the viral “Melodi” trend. He quipped, “Aapne memes nahi dekhe?” (Haven’t you seen the memes?).

PM Modi, known for his composed demeanor, responded with a laugh:
“Nahi, woh sab toh chalta rehta hai. Main usmein apna time waste nahi karta.” (No, that keeps going on. I don’t waste my time on that.)
