Gurmaher # Students Against ABVP

Having heard about the violence her friends were subjected to at Ramjas College on February 21, Gurmehar Kaur put up a Facebook post the next day with the hashtag 'Students Against ABVP'.  It was a self-serious gesture, easily ignored.  But the hysteria of right-wing Twitter trolls turned it into a cause celebre.  The virtue signallers circled, wringing their hands.  Meanwhile, the trolls found a video Gurmehar had made last year in which she said, or rather revealed on cue cards in her preferred Dylan-inflected style, that Pakistan hadn't killed her father in Kargil, war had.  Her critics' collective brain exploded.  Former cricketer Virender Sehwag made a puerile joke.  Less forgivably, a BJP MP compared her to gangster-terrorist Dawood Ibrahim, while a government minister implied her mind was polluted.  And entirely unforgivably, some resorted to rape and death threats.

People started giving her marriage proposals, modelling offers, and advised her to enter Bollywood.  Saima belongs to Kashmir and is currently residing in Pune for her studies.

It is difficult to imagine a security guard, getting viral over the social media, for all good reasons.  In the last few days, a video has been circulating over the internet in which Ratan Gadhavi, a security guard has been spotted singing ‘Gori Radha ne Kalo Kaan’ from the 2016 Gujarati Film, ‘Wrong Side Raju’.

The most interesting part of the story – Ratan Gadhavi was spotted by an RJ from RedFM 93.5 in Ahmedabad.  RJ Devaki somehow got to find the Gadhavi and also invited him on her morning show.  She also titled her show as ‘Anmol Ratan’ which aptly suited the story of his hard-work and talent.  The RJ also conducted a Facebook live session and then introduced the budding singer to her Facebook fans. 

She later asked him to sing a few songs in Bollywood and Sufi genre.  It has also been known to many that the guard has no formal training, yet sings effortlessly.  The RJ later introduced him to famous music directors- Sachin-Jigar.  Moved by Gadhavi’s exceptional singing skills, Sachin expressed his desire to work together on some projects in future.
