‘Hi Friends, From #Melodi’: Giorgia Meloni, PM Modi All Smiles In New Video From G7 – WATCH

The term "Melodi" gained popularity on social media following the leaders' bilateral meeting last year.

A selfie and video capturing Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni at the G7 summit have taken social media by storm. The picture, snapped by PM Meloni during the summit in Italy’s Apulia, shows the leaders sharing smiles. In the video, Meloni greets with “Hello from the Melodi team,” with PM Modi by her side. This comes as PM Modi was in southern Italy for a day upon Meloni’s invitation for the G7 Outreach summit, marking his first foreign trip since beginning his third consecutive term.

This isn’t the first time Meloni and Modi have captured attention with their interactions. Last December during the COP28 summit in Dubai, Meloni shared a selfie with Modi, tagging it as ‘Good friends at COP28’ with #Melodi, which quickly went viral with 47 million views.
