Pyaasi music video

This music video, by the popular Indian band Swarathma, highlights India's water problems through a young girl's struggle to find clean water. "Pyaasi" -- the name of the music video -- means thirsty in Hindi. India has 15% of the world's population, but only 4% of the world's water. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), of the 884 million people worldwide who lack access to clean water, 150 million live in India.
