At Grammy Awards 2024, Shankar Mahadevan and Zakir Hussain’s Shakti band won the Best Global Music Album for the album This Moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Singer-composer\u00a0Shankar Mahadevan\u00a0is on cloud nine as his and Zakir Hussain’s Shakti band won the Best Global Music Album award at the Grammys 2024. Taking to Instagram, Shankar shared a couple of pictures from the event and penned a gratitude note.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the pictures, the composer and singer can be seen posing with his trophy. He wrote in the caption, “WE DID IT. I never imagined that a band from where I have learnt my music and my musical aesthetics would be the band with whom I would eventually perform and win a Grammy. This is the moment from which I can easily say that dreams do come true. Shakti was a dream which came true! Thank you Almighty for making this happen! It’s truly \u2018THIS MOMENT.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As soon as he uploaded the post, fans flooded the comment section with congratulatory messages. One of the users wrote, \u201cDil se congratulations to all of you. What a proud moment.\u201d Another user commented, “You deserve it sir.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his acceptance speech at the\u00a0Grammys, Shankar said, \u201cThank you boys. Thank you God, family, friends and India. India, we are proud of you.\u201d His shoutout to the nation evoked a loud cheer from the crowd. Shankar also thanked his wife for her constant support. “Last but not the least, I would like to dedicate this award to my wife, whom every note of my music is dedicated to,” he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The group also features guitarist John McLaughlin, percussionist V Selvaganesh, and violinist Ganesh Rajagopalan. At the ceremony, Shakti band competed with other artists like Susana Baca, Bokante, Burna Boy, and Davido. ‘This Moment’ album was released on June 30 last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In an exclusive interview with Hindustan Times, Shankar said of\u00a0his historic win, \u201cBeing at a place full of world-class international artistes and represent our country, make a mark as Indians and receive accolades made me so happy. I felt proud to represent India, musically.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 66th edition of the Grammys was held at the Crypto.com Arena on Monday in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
