The smart child Aishwarya Sharma has turned the famous song 'Kolaveri Di' into 'Pollaveri Di' with the specific aim of encouraging the voters to exercise their franchise in Indian polls.
“My mother often tells others that the poll percentage in
India had been quite low. We need to awaken our voters so that most of the electorate turns up on the polling day to exercise their franchise and I thought a song would be the best way to make people aware about the importance of their vote. Since I am very fond of Kolaveri Di, I decided to fit words into the tune and rhythm to make a Pollaveri Di for voters. I decided to give a surprise to my parents so I penned and recorded the song on my own. Later, my mother helped me put it up on YouTube,” said Aishwarya.
Aishwarya’s Pollaveri Di is available on Youtube at http://youtu.be/F2UWDNfBlcA link. The actress has written a poll-slogan in Hindi and English, which reads, “Bhrashtachaar kaa yahee nidaan, Jagrook Voter ….. shat pratishat matdan.” and “Hundred percent turnout by conscious voter, that’s the only corruption buster.”
Aishwarya’s poll-slogan in Hindi is also available on YouTube. Being minor, Aishwarya shall not be able to cast vote but her Pollaveri Di effort has established that she is a responsible citizen of the nation in the true sense.
