Business tycoon Anand Mahindra is an avid Twitter user who shares witty and intriguing posts on the micro-blogging site for his 10.4 million followers. Besides this, he also shares entertaining content and hails people for their creativity and innovations. The industrialist recently took to Twitter to share a ‘wondrous song’ named Rivers of India. As the name suggests, the song is based on the names of rivers in India. It was conceived and created by the distinguished alumnus of IITM Kanniks Kannikeswaran and was produced by the International Center for Clean Water, IIT Madras.
“A wondrous song based on the names of 51 rivers of India. Created to build awareness of this valuable resource. A global collaboration featuring Bombay Jayashri (and her son, Amrit) along with Kaushiki Chakraborty (and her son, Rishith) & many others. Let the music flow through you—just like a river. Enjoy it—& enjoy the weekend,” wrote Anand Mahindra while sharing a video on Twitter. The video captures several rivers across the country, originating from the mighty mountains and flowing through scenic landscapes.
The song was released on Earth Day in 2021 to create awareness about conserving and protecting water resources. The music video features Bombay Jayashri, Kaushiki Chakraborty, Rishith Desikan and Amrit Ramnath, among others.
