The frenzy that the Tamil song ‘Why this Kolaveri Di…’ has been causing needs no introduction. The best place to see that is the YouTube site and now, another angle has emerged for that. Well, many are trying to see if ‘Kolaveri Di..’ can beat the record of the other hit number ‘Charlie Bit My Finger…’.
‘Charlie bit my finger…’ was uploaded in 2007 and is currently in the mark of 39 crore hits. And ‘Kolaveri Di…’ was uploaded two weeks ago and it has already crossed the 1 crore mark. As such, the ‘Charlie bit….’ song is not seasonal, it is a live video and many parents keep showing it to their kids.
But ‘Kolaveri di…’ is for youth and that’s why the response and hits have been growing fast. While ‘Charlie…’ had no language barrier since it is English, it remains to be seen if ‘Kolaveri di..’ will cross it. The general opinion is Indians are little crazy when it comes to such songs and so their frenzy might take the song beyond ‘Charlie…’
