The song includes both Punjabi, Tamil version of ‘Hum Dekhenge
JALANDAR: Themed on Iqbal Bano’s rendition of Faiz Ahmad Faiz’s ghazal ‘Hum Dekhenge’, a song has been produced in Punjabi and Tamil. In Punjabi, it has been titled Hai Sada Haq (it’s our right) and in Tamil, it is Nee Ajanthey (fear not).
What is more remarkable that even the Punjabi version has been sung by two Tamil singers – Vedanth Bharadwaj and Bindhu Malini.
In the 4.24-minute song, images and video footage of farmers’ protest, including those when they were crossing barricades, have been used.
Uploaded on YouTube by Vettiver Collective, the song is a ‘Justice Rocks’ initiative by #Madrasis4Punjabis, a hashtag created to convey solidarity from the deep south of India to protesting farmers from Punjab and Haryana. The producers said, “We share your pain and resonate with your concern…”
