India-US relations: News and Discussions IV
Re: India-US relations: News and Discussions IV
ModiJi has arrived on stage
Re: India-US relations: News and Discussions IV
Watching live on Youtube. Crowd shots showing a large group of what appears to be Bohra Muslims waving. Same as in MSG five years ago. Incredible scenes. The power of the Indian diaspora on show for NaPakis and the rest of the world.

I wish Steny Hoyer would just STFU and let the program go on. Modi looks bored.

Everyone deserves his slice of time. That is one reason all of them are there.
Frump will get 30 minutes if reports are to be believed!

Sitar guy playing 'saare jahaan se acchha', amazing handiwork, the dancer is of course clueless as to what's going on.
Re: India-US relations: News and Discussions IV
Also someone suggested that US media will carry portions of this live, Frump part at least.
Can someone from the states confirm if Modi gets any airtime LIVE?

CNN will I think. Even Trump doesn’t get live time by the fake media.

CNN seems to be tracking this event on their website as Live Updates as of now.
Sitar guy is really blazing the stadium. I would love to get his info if anyone has it.

I think what should have been done is that the amateurs should have been given the starting 1 hr of free run.Primus wrote:Sitar guy playing 'saare jahaan se acchha', amazing handiwork, the dancer is of course clueless as to what's going on.
After the VIP guests were seated, they should have had a short and crisp 15-30 minutes of professional display like one at the Hanover fair.

Yeah what's with that dancer? She strikes up a pose thinking the piece is done, and then finds she has to twirl some more because the piece is still going on. Is she ABCD?Primus wrote:Sitar guy playing 'saare jahaan se acchha', amazing handiwork, the dancer is of course clueless as to what's going on.
Re: India-US relations: News and Discussions IV
so much talent available in India and mumbai organizers did not do a good job on the social program.
Re: India-US relations: News and Discussions IV
The gora playing Tabla is mind blowing.

I am not watching but hopefully the elected & selected US representatives are getting a class on the standing of Modi not only in India but also within the diaspora.

Keeps getting better even if such gestures are selfish.GAURAV C SAWANT @gauravcsawant
Loud chants of Bharat Mata ki Jai and Vande Mataram at NRG stadium #Houston #Texas as @PMOIndia @narendramodi walks in and shakes hands with Friends of India on the stage. Non stop chants of Modi from the packed stadium. What a moment for Indian Americans and Indians & Americans.

What was also a joy to watch was how many of the representatives actually bent ahead with a Namaste before shaking hands with Modi. Good gesture to respect our culture too. #HowdyModi

The kids messed up the Indian anthem, IMHO. Probably too worked up.

"Threat of radical islamic terrorism"...
Re: India-US relations: News and Discussions IV
Trump Viya said :- Together we will fight ISLAMIC TERRORISM & got a standing ovation from crowd as well as Modi jee.
Re: India-US relations: News and Discussions IV

Mollick you beat me to this. I don’t think this will be lost on observers and analysts.
Re: India-US relations: News and Discussions IV
I think Modi just stopped short of telling Indian Americans to go vote for Trump though with just 1.2% there is not much they can do.

What a big middle finger to Hasan Minhaj and all the Islamist-lite crowd!
Re: India-US relations: News and Discussions IV
May be he is betting on his personal chemistry with Trump viya. A known predictable moody friend is better then unknown and unpredictable new RastraaPati at oval office.hanumadu wrote:I think Modi just stopped short of telling Indian Americans to go vote for Trump though with just 1.2% there is not much they can do.
Re: India-US relations: News and Discussions IV
They can do not with votes but with money.

Yes and same to people like him in India. I hope it’s rubbed in to them in India.Karan M wrote:What a big middle finger to Hasan Minhaj and all the Islamist-lite crowd!
