The opening of the video has the image of two children who are searching for food amidst heaps of garbage that is scattered on the road. Just then their teary-eyed mother watches them (her children) helplessly. All this makes you wish that this family had food to eat. In the meantime, a female voice begins singing the lyrics of Vaanam Engal Ellaye. This is the official theme song of city-based NGO No Food Waste. This album song is christened Vaanam Engal Ellaye. This song urges people not to waste food.
Vaanam Engal Ellaye was launched today as part of World Food Day celebrations. This theme song was launched by Coimbatore City Municipal Corporation (CCMC) Commissioner, Dr. Vijay Karthikeyan. Addressing the gathering he said “Many volunteer organizations who continue to serve the needy in our city. Each organization is helping people in a different way. I am proud to work in Coimbatore. On the occasion of World Food Day, I request not to waste food as several people across the world go hunger and many children are malnourished as they cannot afford food.” Dr. Vijay Karthikeyan said.
