Kashyap “Kash” Patel, a staunch Donald Trump loyalist, became the first Indian-origin FBI Director on February 20, 2025. The Republican-led U.S. Senate confirmed Patel’s appointment in a tight 51-49 vote.

Dan Scavino, White House Deputy Chief of Staff, celebrated Patel’s appointment with a Bollywood twist, sharing a viral Malhari dance clip on X featuring Patel’s face.

Scavino’s 47-second video, swapping actor Ranveer Singh’s face with Patel’s, racked up over 4.4 million views and 10,000 likes. Captioned, “Congratulations to the new FBI Director, @Kash_Patel,” it playfully nods to the song’s theme: crushing enemies with joy. Fans loved the creative welcome.

The Senate vote split sharply. Republicans Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins joined all Democrats in opposing Patel. One Democrat even warned outside FBI headquarters that Patel “will cause evil” inside. Yet, Trump’s nominee prevailed, marking a historic milestone.

Kash Patel’s Vision for the FBI

Post-confirmation, Patel thanked Trump and Attorney General Pam Bondi on X. He pledged to restore trust in the FBI. “The American people deserve transparency and justice,” he wrote. “Politicalization has eroded faith—that ends now. My mission? Let good cops be cops and rebuild the agency.”

He added, “Mission First. America Always. Let’s get to work.”

Born in 1980 to Gujarati parents in New York, Patel grew up in East Africa. He graduated from Garden City High School and then studied at the University of Richmond. Later, he earned a law degree and an International Law certificate from University College London. His career includes roles like National Security Advisor and Senior Counsel for the House Intelligence Committee.

As FBI Director, Patel aims to reshape the agency’s legacy—from “G-Men” to post-9/11 guardians—into a transparent force. His Indian heritage and Trump ties make him a standout figure. Will he succeed? Time will tell.
