I came across this amazing video of a white guy singing a traditional Punjabi song, while playing a drum, in an outside mall area (hat tip: Satwinder). Often we wonder how Punjabi will be preserved. I think one of the unique ways is through music.
I hope you enjoy it as you begin your weekend!

I am glad you are all enjoying the video! It is pretty awesome!
Balmeet Singh-His friend left a tip and then the guy sat down.
Empowerment Engineer- I am assuming the performance took place in a European city because 1) I see children walking around in their school uniforms and 2) I am doubtful something like this could take place in the U.S. … we are too busy making English-only policies!
