In a world where it’s getting increasingly tougher to distinguish between fake news and truth, it is now important for each of us to pause before they share any forwarded message or any link that appeals to our biases. To ensure that this message gets understood – and shared – by everyone, celebrities from across film, TV, digital and media have come together for a music video for a song called ‘Oops! I Shared It Again’, a parody of Britney Spears’ classic, ‘Oops!… I Did It Again’. The song by youth media organisation, Yuvaa, features influencers Akash Banerjee, Gurmehar Kaur, Maanvi Gagroo, Nakuul Mehta, Shreya Dhanwanthary and Yahya Bootwala, as well as journalists Meghnad, Raghu Karnad and Shereen Bhan, all of whom have come together for a single purpose: to put the responsibility and onus of not sharing fake news on ourselves. The song has been re-created by Siddhant Bhosle and has been sung by Saba Azad and Siddhant Bhosle. It was made to support the Share Verified campaign, against fake news and misinformation. It is now live on YouTube and all other social media on @weareyuvaa.
