Uzhavaa Lyrics Translation – Bhoomi Soundtrack

Sid Sriram’s call to ‘destroy disease-like development with knowledge’ targets unsustainable practices. Yogi B challenges resource exploitation: ‘Who sold our water for body-destroying drinks?’ Both sections urge reclaiming ancestral farming methods through contemporary education.
