Look at the confidence. Even if this boy has memorised all these, it’s not easy at all. Especially considering he picked those languages from tourists. Yes, why does’t this boy deserve education? (I don’t know what is the latest status of this kid though.)

This is incredible man. This is really outstanding.
I can say if education is given properly to these kids without any discrepancies they are surely going to bring India name and fame.

There are two more video of the same kid when he was younger. And at that time he could speak multiple languages too. I think around 13 languages. You can search “Lingo Kid” on youtube to find his videos. It’s super sad that such kids don’t get education and we say “Mera Bharat Mahan”.

I agree with Maulik, this boy really need education, direction and support. He can be world’s first teenage Multilingual Master if he get support from the community. And it’s sad that if in era of “Raising India” we can not provide education to such talent.
However, It’s the way you look at things. I think we must say proudly “Mere Bharat Mahan” after this video because this can only happen/possible in our India. See the brilliance, talent and presentation skills we have in street boys who never went to school or learning institute during their childhood.. isn’t it amazing?

I think there are talents everywhere in the world. But important thing is to nurture the talent. I would hesitate to say “Mera Bharat Mahan” because I feel sad seeing lives of many such kids being wasted due to lack of support. Remember the scene of a kid on railway platform in Swades. After seeing that Mohan said he doesn’t think ‘mera bharat mahan’, but he thinks India has the ability to become one. And I agree with Mohan.
