Mumbai: Singer Sunidhi Chauhan today unveiled AMUL’s exclusive unedited version of its signature folk song from the movie Manthan titled ‘Mero gaam kathapare’. The song, was conceptualized and first created way back in 1976, by the Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation Ltd. to celebrate the legendary story of the success of its co-operative movement in the lives of women farmers. Lending her voice to the song then was none other than Preeti Sagar.

Over 35 year since, times have changed, awareness has increased and the women farmers are far more empowered. To make the video more relevant to the day and age, the new version with refreshing music and visuals showcases Bharat catching up with India like never before. The 3 minute un-edited video showcases the changing face of rural India.

Originally inspired by the Shyam Benegal’s Hindi film named Manthan (The Churning), the song played to visuals of the movie set

amidst the backdrop of the famous White Revolution of India (Operation Flood). Now years later, Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation Ltd. has re-created the magic of Manthan which talks about how this independent woman’s life has enriched further and now is walking neck to neck with her urban counterpart be it technology, financial independence or education. The music video emphasizes on her contribution towards creating a healthier lifestyle for the society in general.

The song will be marketed across multi-media vehicles through a month long campaign and premiers on Reliance Broadcast Network’s robust media network across radio, television, out of home and digital.

This song captures the spirit of this movement & is sure to captivate India’s imagination.
