The three-times Grammy-winning musician said, “Millet is considered to be a super crop because it is great for our body, health and our planet. All of us have to make it our mission to ensure that everyone returns to our roots, our tradition, especially in India, and return to millet because it’s been a very strong part of our traditions. Prime Minister Modi has been doing tremendous work to popularise millet not just in India, but all over the world because it’s important that the whole world adopts a healthier lifestyle and a life that is better for our environment. The United Nations has declared this year as the international year of millet. All of us know that when PM Modi went to the US and there was a state dinner at the White House where millet was actually served at the dinner.”

On the song ‘Abundance in Millets’, featuring PM Modi being nominated for the 2024 Grammy’s, Kej said, “It is really exciting that Prime Minister Modi is now a Grammy nominee, this is actually for a song that has been created on millet, by Prime Minister Modi along with Indo-American artists Falu (Falguni Shah) and Gaurav Shah. The three of them have created this extraordinary track which has been nominated for a Grammy. I’m extremely confident that they are going to bring this Grammy home, and we are going to showcase India as being a country that stands by millets and that stands by creating a better future for the future generations”.
