PM Modi
playing the traditional Japanese drums (Taiko) was the last thing on the
mind of the organisers of the launch of Tata Consultancy Service’s
(TCS) new programme for Japanese students.
Welcoming an honoured guest by playing the Taiko is a traditional Japanese form.
PM Modi listened to the drummer couple in rapt attention before taking the drum sticks and playing the drums like an expert.
The
Japanese drummer initially watched and then suddenly joined Prime
Minister Modi as the two belted out a fast rhythm for a minute or so
before thunderous applause broke out.
