A week ago, my friend sent me a link and told me I should watch this Youtube video because it was so hilarious. After watching the video, I was unsure if it was making fun of Punjabi people and their culture or if it was a tribute to diverse music like Bhangra.  The video was a Punjabi version of Jingle Bells with a Punjabi Santa and so on. Take a look at the video below:

What do you think?  Is this a racist joke by Nickelodeon, or an acknowledgement of Bhangra music and the Punjabi culture?

  1. I think that because they took a widely known english song and changed it to make it sound like Punjabi, it sounds (and looks) racist to me.

  2. Seems like an innocent enough joke… sounds kinda catchy anyways.

    But since when is there that much snow in India?

  3. I agree with Sameer, just seems to be a innocent joke just trying to put some holiday spirit into us. Don't think it's all that racist personally.
