New Delhi: Bollywood movie ‘Brahmastra’ was a huge success at the box office, and had almost the entire nation humming to ‘Kesariya’. The tune undoubtedly captured all our hearts, but never did we imagine that the song could be sung in five different languages. Punjabi boy Snehdeep Singh Kalsi has recently sung a part of the song in 5 different languages, with the language changing with every line.
The video has been shared by Satbir Singh, where Snehdeep can be seen singing the song in Malayalam, Tamil, Kannada, Telugu and Hindi respectively. He captioned the post saying, “A Punjabi lad singing Kesariya in Malayalam, Tamil, Kannada, Telugu and Hindi. I don’t know how well as I don’t know southern languages but sounds fabulous. Learning more languages is a beautiful thing. Anyone knows who is he?”
