PewDiePie Wants to Record ‘Sorry Song’ in India
PewDiePie also tried Indian snacks in a video by an Indian YouTuber.
After taking a dig at Indias poverty and caste system, Swedish YouTube star PewDiePie says he wants to visit the country and record a “redemption song”.
In a video on Indian YouTuber Saimandar Waghdhare’s channel, PewDiePie, who tried out some Indian snacks, said he would shoot a ‘sorry song’ when he visits the country.
Earlier this year, PewDiePie, aka Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg, didn't take his defeat as the Worlds No.1 YouTube channel very well, after the Indian film and music label T-Series took the lead, and made derogatory comments about India.
In the video, which was posted on his YouTube channel, he also pointed out a news article in which it was reported that T-Series head honcho Bhushan Kumar was investigated for alleged huge tax evasion.
Now, he has expressed his admiration for the country in Saiman Says YouTube channel.
When Saimandar Waghdhare asks him about his plans to visit India, PewDiePie laughs, before saying: “I’ll come to India. I'll shoot another song there. My redemption song. It'll be a sad, sorry India song. Like a ballad.”
In the video, he is also seen tasting Indian snacks like bhakarwadi, khakra, soan papdi and jeera soda. Appreciating the ‘desi' flavours, he said, “India has got good snacks.”
