Tharoor's #GayatriMantra Video Garners Netizens' Attention
Congress MP Shashi Tharoor took the netizens by surprise posting a video of the ‘Gayatri Mantra’. While his interests usually revolve around politics and showing off his vocabulary, in this tweet Tharoor was all praises for the rendition of the Gayatri Mantra as a beautiful song.
“I doubt many of us have heard the #GayatriMantra sung this way before. This is from an Indonesian film. It is not chanted like a mantra, which we normally are accustomed to, but sung beautifully. Exquisite.” he tweeted.
