Industrialist Anand Mahindra, who is quite active on X, regularly posts about trending topics and engaging stories, for his 11.2 million followers. On Monday, he shared a video of Pranysqa Mishra, a 9-year-old girl of Indian descent, who won over the judges on America's Got Talent with her stunning singing skills. The 9-year-old's performance of Tina Turner's iconic song 'River Deep Mountain High', was so impressive that the show's judge Heidi Klum honoured her with the Golden Buzzer.
Mr Mahindra was equally wowed with her "raw talent" and showered her with praises. The business tycoon also revealed that he was in tears when she called her grandmother during the show.
Sharing her video, he wrote, ''What on earth is going on?? For the second time, within the past two weeks, a young VERY young woman of Indian origin has rocked the stage at @AGT with raw talent that is simply astonishing. With skills acquired in indigenous American genres of music. Rock & Gospel. Pranysqa Mishra is just NINE years old. Damn, I had tears too when they called her grandmother. Yes, America's got talent indeed. And a lot of it is coming from India...''
