French President Emmanuel Macron wrapped up his three-day India visit in a fun and unexpected way, with a short social media video titled “Thank You India!” that quickly caught the attention of netizens. The 43-second clip showcases memorable moments from his trip: warm welcomes, meetings with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, temple visits, cultural events, and even Macron jogging through the streets of Mumbai.
What really made the video stand out was the choice of music. Instead of traditional orchestral or diplomatic tunes, Macron picked the title track from the Bollywood hit Dhurandhar, instantly giving the farewell montage a lively, local flavor. Social media users praised the gesture, calling the pairing of the upbeat track with the diplomatic footage “just lit” and celebrating it as a nod to Indian pop culture.
The video went viral almost immediately, sparking playful reactions and memes across platforms. Many saw it as a light-hearted but thoughtful touch, blending international diplomacy with the vibrancy of Indian cinema. Some even joked that Macron had “mastered Bollywood vibes” better than expected.
During his visit, Macron focused on strengthening India-France ties, especially in areas like technology, innovation, and AI. He also addressed the India AI Impact Summit 2026, highlighting India’s growing role in global tech governance. In his farewell video, the mix of cultural warmth and official highlights reflected both the serious and human sides of diplomacy.
By choosing a Bollywood soundtrack, Macron turned a formal thank-you note into a viral moment that connected with people across India, proving that even heads of state can score brownie points with good taste in music.
