Dekhiye #TeriMitti kal 12.30 pm. Hamari taraf se khas unke liye #DirectDilSe (Someone has rightly said that in tough times, only your near and dear ones offer help; today, in these most troubled times, doctors in white coat are no less than soldiers. Do watch Teri Mitti, tomorrow at 12.30 pm. a tribute to them from us.)

In the video along with the tweet, the first two lines of the song flash on the screen. “Sarhad pe jo wardi khaki thee, ab uska rang safed hua. Teri mitti mein mil jaavan, gul ban ke main kheel jaavan. Itni si hai dil ki aarzoo (The colour of a soldier’s khaki uniform has now transformed into white coat. Will die and become one with motherland, will re-appear as flowers, that is the only wish).
