As the elections in India are on in full swing, the Baadshah of Bollywood is here to remind us about one of our most important duties as Indian citizens.
Through a catchy song titled - Karo Matdan, Shah Rukh Khan highlights the importance of people picking the government that loves the country and its citizens more than themselves. Composed by Tanishk Bagchi, written by Abby Viral and sung by none other than Shah Rukh Khan himself, this song is all sorts of fun!
Shah Rukh Khan took to social media to share the video saying, "PM sahib @narendramodi ne creativity ki liye bola tha. Main thoda late ho gaya video banane mein...aap mat hona Vote karne mein!!! 'Voting is not only our Right, it is our Power.' Please Use It. Thank u to @tanishkbagchi @abbyviral @parakramsinghr ."
