Track Farmers' Protest Live Updates only on Deccan Herald When the farmers' protest began, I thought it would fit well, given the history of the song," Sahil said. I realised the youth connects to it and obviously 'Money Heist' has helped in that. It was then also used for the CAA protests a number of times. "I had already created a 'Wapas Jao' (Hindi version) of 'Bella Ciao' during various student protests in India and it was received well. He had created a Hindi version of “Bella Ciao” during the anti-CAA protests earlier this year and knew the song, which returned to the popularity charts through Netflix's popular drama "Money Heist", would resonate with the youth. As soon as I start getting abuses on the YouTube comments I understand it has become slightly popular and has moved out of the usual echo chamber! For this song it happened in less than 24 hours of uploading it," Sahil told PTI. Sahil, who teaches mathematics in a Delhi school, said "fear, abuses and disappointments" are par for the course for a socially conscious musician but it all seems worth it if his words give strength to the thousands of farmers who have been protesting for the last month to demand a rollback of the three new agriculture laws. The video of the song has almost 2.7 lakh views on YouTube in less than a week and is being widely shared across social media platforms. “Bella Ciao”, the anthem of resistance across the world, now has a Punjabi version that echoes with the sounds of farmers protesting and 27-year-old Poojan Sahil who created the song can’t be happier at its acceptance and success.
