Everybody loves to sing along to the radio while driving, and American talk show host James Corden certainly made the idea mainstream with Carpool Karaoke. That is how the internet discovered Malaysian YouTuber Meera James, who lip-syncs to a number of popular songs, including Hindi film songs and Why This Kolaveri Di from the Tamil movie 3 (2012).
James’s videos are hilarious on two levels: her dramatic antics, which are seem more than suitable to the songs she lip-syncs, and her co-passenger, who is seemingly unperturbed by what is happening next to him. From Bole Chudiyaan to Maiya Yashoda, nothing is beyond Meera James. A Bollywood cameo beckons.
