Ranveer Singh shares sign language video Vartalap, hopes to make Indian Sign Language India’s 23rd official language – bollywood

Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh, who has been supporting rappers and musicians across platforms ever since he began working on Zoya AKhtar’s Gully Boy, has now come up with a beautiful sign language music video.

Titled Paathshala episode 1, Vartalap, the video shows a black and white footage of a man singing the entire three-minute-song in the Indian Sign Language. The song also plays in the background. The lines of the song go as “Hai janam ye bas ek hi, Din ye kam karam anek hai, Nigaah to mili hai sab ko hi, Par ye mann se na hai dekhte” – Vartalap by Spitfire.”

The description says, “We want to take this opportunity to open up a conversation with the 10 million+ Deaf people in India through our first music video translated in ISL (Indian Sign Language) produced in collaboration with AccioMango Pvt. Ltd. For this video, Dr. Alim Chandani (founder of AccioMango) appointed Deaf signer Hardeep Singh who studied Spitfire’s lyrics for days to translate it in ISL.”

Sorry I cannot be with you all today but know that I am with you’ll with all my heart and in spirit….today and forever.”
