“You must have seen that in the last few days new songs and bhajans have been composed on Shri Ram and Ayodhya. Many people are writing new poems as well. “I have also shared some bhajans and songs on my social media. It seems that the world of art is becoming a participant in this historic moment in its unique style,” he said. “A thought comes to my mind that should we share all such creations with a common hashtag?
