    The tourism campaign team asked me to sing a song.. i chose to sing in Hindi . This video was shot pre-covid times. P.S. The British ruled our land for almost 200 years. They were large hearted enough to allow an Indian girl to sing a Hindi song on their soil (with permissions taken) But it makes me proud to see my own countrymens large-heartedness to stand up so solidly for the British. It shows how seriously we Indians follow Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam.”
