New Delhi: It is often said that music knows no boundaries and limitations, and this has been recently proved by a Korean singer who sang the popular song 'Kabira' from the movie 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani' at an Indian wedding. Yes, most Bollywood music crosses the Indian borders and makes the world groove to its beats, but this was at a whole new level.
A video is doing the rounds on the internet where a Korean singer by the name of Kim Jaehyeon is seen practising for a Sangeet performance. In the video, he mentioned that he wrote down the lyrics in Korean and kept on listening to only 'Kabira' and practising it every day- at work, before bed, and even in the bathroom! Needless to say, his efforts were rewarded, as he delivered an outstanding performance despite his inability to "speak any Indian languages at all."
Kim uploaded the video on his Instagram handle with the caption, "I can not speak any Indian languages at all, but to offer my congratulations to the newlywed couple Nishant Gawande & Pranjali, I prepared this song. Although I made a lot of mistakes on the stage, I loved and appreciated that everybody likes my singing! Thank you."
Additionally, he also thanked the person who had helped him prepare the song.
