Highlights of #DilSeSewa Telethon: An Initiative To Support Our Langars Feed Millions During The Coronavirus Crisis

New Delhi Television Limited (NDTV), in collaboration with the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee, has initiated a campaign #DilSeSewa. At a time of widespread hunger and a humanitarian crisis, this campaign focuses on the rich living tradition of food sharing as widely practised in “Langars” or community kitchens by the Sikh community. The Sikh community has been at the forefront of relentlessly helping people to tide over the crisis— and their 'sewa' during the coronavirus pandemic is a shining example of their community spirit.

Here are the Highlights of the #DilSeSewa Telethon:

Gulzar teamed up with Vishal Bharadwaj, Film director, composer & singer and his wife Rekha Bharadwaj, Singer & live performer for a song called 'Dhoop' or sunshine to spread the message of positivity at a time of crisis like the coronavirus pandemic

Vishal Bharadwaj 

Usually songs are about winning and overcoming a crisis, but Gulzar sir's words are about finding positivity and sunshine. 

Rekha Bharadwaj: 
I think when we hear songs by Guzar sir, everyone thinks how can he say something that we feel but cannot express. This is a song that expresses emotions of so many people.

About The Campaign

About The Campaign

At a time of widespread hunger and a humanitarian crisis, this campaign focuses on the rich living tradition of food sharing as widely practised in “Langars” or community kitchens by the Sikh community.

The concept of Langar is to serve meals to all, regardless of caste, class, religion, gender, social or economic status or political consideration - especially at a time when it is most critical. The Sikh community has been at the forefront of relentlessly helping people to tide over the crisis— and their 'sewa' during the coronavirus pandemic is a shining example of their community spirit.
