What happens when we try to imagine Bollywood songs without Urdu? From “Chand Sifarish” to “Zindagi Kaisi Hai Paheli”, the beauty of Hindi cinema and poetry has always lived in the blend of Hindi and Urdu. But now, a new controversy has erupted in India: complaints have been filed against major Hindi news channels for using too many Urdu words in their daily broadcasts. According to a complaint lodged on September 9, 2025, channels like Aaj Tak, ABP News, Zee News, TV9 Bharatvarsh, and TV18 have been accused of using nearly 30% Urdu vocabulary, which the complainant calls “fraudulent and criminal.” This video dives deep into the irony of that complaint—because even the very words used in the petition are themselves Urdu in origin! From common terms like “khabar”, “mausam”, and “vajah”, to everyday phrases like “tasreef rakhiye” or “sailaab”, our language is filled with Urdu expressions we no longer even recognize as foreign. We also explore the intertwined history of Hindi and Urdu—languages born together in India, nurtured by poets like Amir Khusro, shaped by Persian, Sanskrit, and local dialects. Both grew as twin sisters, later separated by politics and identity wars. And here’s the biggest twist: even Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s most iconic political lines—“Main Chowkidar Hoon”, “Main Fakir Hoon”, “Main Elan Karta Hoon”—all rely on Urdu words. Without Urdu, even his fiery speeches would lose their punch. So, is it really possible to erase Urdu from our media, politics, or daily life? Or is this language battle nothing but a political stunt? Watch the full video to find out, and don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe for more fearless takes on news, culture, and politics.
