Kenyan’s sing ‘Jana Gana Mana’ - the day the world comes together
no matter who sings it, I still get goosebumps !!!
Leading film-makers are seeking to change the way we think
about other countries. This is one of a powerful series of
films to be shown on Pangea Day, May 10, “the day the world
comes together through film”.See all six anthems. Then visit http://www.pangeaday.org
and register your screening for May 10. It’s time to
imagine a different world.Here, set against the backdrops of Nairobi city and the
beautiful landscape of Uhuru Park (Maasai country), a
Kenyan choir sings the Indian national anthem.The director has chosen the Indian anthem because Kenya is
home to a sizeable Indian population (including Sikhs &
Jains also) of approximately 2.5 million, most of them
descendants of the East African Railways labourers who were
brought over by the British during the late 19th and early
20th centuries when the British colonialists ruled Kenya
and the rest of the East African region.
