In a world full of Tony Kakkars, it has become hard to find the next Lucky Ali. And similarly, no new artist is recording songs like Kitni Haseen Zindagi Hai Ye or Maaeri any longer.
As a result, we see Dheeme Dheeme or Bijlee Bijlee on loop on Instagram. People like Dhinchak Pooja have gained fame in the world of likes and comments.
Social media is like the silver screen for common people, only when used wisely.
Many a times social media provides the right platform to those who are struggling. All the likes, comments and views also help them find the right opportunities.
We’ve made a list of artists who deserved to become a star and social media gave them the much-needed kick-start.
Here are 5 such people and their inspiring stories:
1. CLOWN FROM KARACHI
A recent video from Karachi, Pakistan is going viral on social media. A man dressed as a clown is singing a track from movie Agnipath.
In the video, a blogger asks a few questions to the man and then he reveals that he loves to sing.
And trust me, this is the best version of Abhi Mujh Mein Kahin till date.
