What is being termed as the “cutest version” of AR Rahman’s iconic song ‘Maa Tujhe Salaam’ is the one sung by a four-year-old girl from Mizoram. Since Esther Hnamte’s rendered version of the mesmerising song was posted on YouTube, the internet users have flooded praises for the little girl who is a preschooler from Mizoram’s Lunglei district. From hitting “perfect” high notes to not missing a single word in the entire song, the netizens can be seen astounded by how just how “amazing” Hnamte’s voice is. Many have shared the song across social media platforms and even tagged AR Rahman in several posts. 

In the nearly four-minute-long video, Esther Hnamte can be seen holding the national flag and also the scenic views of Mizoram. As per reports, the four-year-old only talks in Mizo, her mother tongue and doesn’t know Hindi or English but she has sung songs in all three languages that are posted on her YouTube channel.
