An intercept pf the lyrics is, "Corona..ooh..na na. All of my mind is in corona..ooh..na na. It came all the way from China na na. Everyone is freaking out corona. There is something about this virus corona na na,"
She captioned her video posted on her Twitter account, saying, "There is no need to panic. Stay hydrated and keep yourself hygienic. If you feel any symptoms go see a doctor immediately. Lets hope to beat this spineless intruder soon."
Meanwhile, the chairman of the Mahindra and Mahindra Group shared Shaarvi's video on Twitter, saying, "Creativity is bubbling up all over & social isolation is aiding that process! This young lady's song is an amusing parody, but she has some serious vocal talent."
