Have you checked out the track, “Ode to love”, created by the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne?  You must.

The video shares the message to celebrate “love with 20 fathers and their daughters across 2 continents plus 1 extra chromosome.”

Film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared the track on Twitter:


Karan Johar had also posted the track on social media.


The video released on the occasion of World Down Syndrome Week features fathers from across the world grooving to the song ” Tujhe Dekha to Ye Jana Sanam” from cult-favourite Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge along with their daughters who are suffering from the Down syndrome.

Down syndrome, also known as trisomy 21, is a genetic disorder caused by the presence of all or part of a third copy of chromosome 21.

Associated with physical growth delays, mild to moderate intellectual disability and characteristic facial features, the disease is incurable. It is also one of the most common chromosome abnormalities in humans.

The Indian Film Festival of Melbourne will take place this year from August 9 to August 17, 2019.

Yash Raj Films, E.Motion 21 and the Mind Blowing Films are responsible for the produced track.
