Abeer Vajpayee (Hindi: अबीर वाजपेयी), (born 26 February 1983) is an Indian Writer, Director and Lyricist. After working for a news channel as a journalist, he felt that journalism could not fulfil his creative desires. He left the job and came into the creative field.
Career
After struggling for opportunities for more than 2 years, Abeer created a parody of popular Tamil song Why This Kolaveri Di[1][2] (Why This Corruption Sir?) whose lyrics were catchy and aimed at the corrupt regime of Congress led UPA Government. Vajpayee had sung this song in the voices of Manmohan Singh, Mulayam Singh Yadav, Anna Hazare and Amar Singh. His wife, Ruchi, had done the voice of Sonia Gandhi in the beginning. The song was released on YouTube on 19 January 2012 and immediately went viral. Coincidentally, this was the time when Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections were underway, and the song also gathered attention of BJP Vice President Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi, who was then in charge of UP Elections. He released the song on 23 January 2012 as an official song of BJP.
Modi Aane Wala Hai
Modi Aane Wala Hai[3][4] was the official campaign song of Bhartiya Janta Party during the Indian general election, 2014. It was released at the BJP National Executive Council meet on 19 January 2014. Written & composed by Vajpayee and sung by noted Bollywood singer Udit Narayan, the song created a larger-than-life image of Narendra Modi, the BJP candidate for Prime Minister.
The success of the song was due to its catchy lyrics that carried hope and a confidence that Modi would definitely become Prime Minister. Soon after the release of the song, a 25-second chunk from the song was edited and made available as a caller tune[5] that was downloaded by a number of BJP workers. This caller tune also attracted the ire of Congress Party, which knew that it was on the verge of losing elections badly.[6][7]
