Wonderful legacy of Mahatma Gandhi and others enables Indian Hindus to enjoy devotional songs of other religions like Islam and Christianity; Bhar do jholi meri ya Muhammad sung by Hindu kids
Loved watching these kids whose names are Hindu names, singing with devotion and skill, a famous Qawwali on Prophet Muhammad - Bhar do jholi meri ya Muhammad (Fill my bag, O Mumammad!): Bhar do jholi (COVER) by Maithili Thakur, Rishav Thakur and Ayachi Thakur, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHPxVouu4UM, 3 min. 47 secs, published on 13th July 2019.
I think one of the great contributions of Mahatma Gandhi to modern independent India is how he encouraged religious pluralism. He was supported by some famous Muslims of India then. Maulana Abul Kalam Azad, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abul_Kalam_Azad, is a famous freedom fighter who supported Gandhi and was education minister in independent India. Maulana Azad worked for religious harmony in India.
I think it is the great and wonderful legacy of such leaders of the past that Indians in independent India (after 1947) have the freedom of religion and freedom of speech environment wherein Hindus like me have been able to get exposure to wonderful aspects of religions like Islam and Christianity including great devotional songs in those religious traditions.
