You may have heard it many times that today’s children are born talented. Well we can say that it is true to some extent as technology played an important role in this abrupt change.

Today we all depend on technology whether for education, entertainment or other things. So for children who have grown up in today’s environment, it becomes common to get influenced by what they are seeing in their surroundings.

Especially when it comes to singing or dancing, India and its talented kids need no introduction. Entertainment is so deeply rooted in our country that even a small kid can be seen humming and dancing.

We see numerous videos of these small, talented kids dancing, singing or doing other stuff going viral on the internet. It takes a blink of an eye to viral a video on the internet, it is a positive thing as well because people recognise the hidden talent of children.

About the Viral Video

In the video, the then 4 year old Jainil can be seen in the classroom standing near his teacher, who can be heard asking him to sing a song following which the kids started singing Mohammad Rafi’s iconic “Gulabi Aankhein Jo Teri Dekhi” song.

He remembered the lyrics of the song very well and most importantly his voice is really sweet. While singing he suddenly stops and tells his teacher “Ma’am I had a toothache” and also shows it by opening his mouth after which the teacher said “Gao na yar”.

His innocence and cuteness stole all the hearts on social media. In Jan 2022, IAS Avneesh Sharan also shared that video on his Twitter handle.
