VIRAL VIDEO HAS SAVED THE RADIO STAR

A homeless man, who has lived on the streets of Mumbai, India for years, has shot to fame, after a
clip of his mellifluous radio voice went viral on the internet.

Ravish Kumar, was filmed by a local cameraman holding a cardboard sign that read: "I'm an ex-
radio announcer who has fallen on hard times". Kumar is seen in the video asking for money in
exchange for a quick blast of his “God-given voice”. Now that the video has had millions of hits on
YouTube, Kumar has become an overnight sensation.

He has spent today appearing on talk shows across India, sporting a new haircut and a smarter
appearance than on the clip that made him famous.

Since his story broke, Kumar has received numerous job offers from big broadcasting. Kumar has
been on the streets for years and has struggled with drug and alcohol addiction for years.

The story of the "homeless man with the golden pipes” has lifted the spirits of a recession-hit
nation in the week that it has returned to work after the Christmas holidays. However, the instant
hero has attracted so much attention that reporters have started digging into his background and
they have discovered that Kumar has struggled with drug and alcohol addiction for years and has
previously pressed the self-destruct button in his life. Asked if the media storm around him may
cause him to relapse into addiction, he said, "I'm going to the meetings and I have called my
sponsor.”

Accusations have also surfaced that Kumar acted as a pimp during his years on the streets. In


response, Kumar said, "Don't judge a book by its cover - everyone has their own little story. I'm
just so thankful. Deeply, I have been blessed by God. I'm getting a second chance. It’s amazing."
There are fears though that Kumar will not be able to cope with his new status as an instant hero.

They say that he will be a flash in the pan and his fairytale story is being used by the media to
reinforce Indian Dream propaganda, at a time when India is in serious economic difficulties and
the gap between the rich and poor is rapidly increasing.
