Kilor, who has been instrumental in creating many songs on educational and social themes, said, “It took 15 days to get the song ready and release it.”
The amateur artist has sung and written songs on woes of farmers and pensioners, to propogate conservation of trees, Swachha Bharat, and dedicated to defence services.
Among his popular songs is ‘Signal Na Tod Mere Bhaiyya (don’t break traffic signal) appealing to citizens to follow traffic rules at busy squares.
