Dhanush's Kolaveri ‘breaks language barriers’
Kolaveri di has gone viral on YouTube with over 20 million hits so far
Southern star Dhanush is perhaps the first Indian celebrity whose song Kolaveri di has gone viral on YouTube with over 20 million hits so far.
Dhanush, son-in-law of matinee idol Rajnikanth, is overjoyed that the song is successfully "breaking [the] language barrier". "Yayyyyyy 20 million views for Kolaveri !! Pa pa papa pa pa papa!! God bless," Dhanush posted on Twitter.
The song, composed by 18-year-old Anirudh Ravichander, will be a part of the film 3.
The Tamil-English song is also a hit with north Indians, despite its southern accent-loaded vocals.
"When a song is breaking language barrier and brings us together, how does it matter which language it's in? You want a name to this language? It's an Indian song made by an Indian," Dhanush said.
