With an attempt to spread information in his usual fun manner, rapper and musician Baba Sehgal recently released his new song 'Namaste' which is based on ways to deal with the novel coronavirus. Sehgal who is known for is humourous songs, started 'Namaste' by speaking about how and why he chose to make a song on the topic.
"Firstly I thought of not doing any song on this issue since it is quite a sensitive topic, but when I saw Prince Charles doing Namaste on TV, I was taken aback," he said in the video. "I was very happy, because Namaste comes from a culture. So guys let's do the Namaste and beat this corona shit," he added before finally kick-starting the power-packed song. The lyrics of the song are based on different ways to deal with COVID-19 and how people around the globe are adopting Indian salutation 'Namaste' to greet each other amid the outbreak of the highly contagious virus. Through his song, Sehgal asks people to not panic and stop travelling to shoot the virus. Moving further with the song, the 'chicken fried rice' singer took on people who are not taking coronavirus seriously and asked them to not go in crowded places.
