Sri Lankan singer Yohani rose to humongous fame in 2021 with her song “Manike Mage Hithe”. She reveals the moment it hit her that the song has gone viral and what she’s looking forward to entering the Indian music industry now.
Singer-composer Yohani says she never expected her cover of “Manike Mage Hithe” to become one of the most viral tracks of 2021.

Months after she became a viral sensation in India, the singer is yet to wrap her head around how far her ‘simple song’ went. “The recording was really simple, song was simple, everything was just simple. And there was nothing much going on, it was just one angle. We did it for fun,” she exclusively told in www.ndiareporter today.com

“Manike Mage Hithe” currently has nearly 193 million views on YouTube. Within days of release in May this year, it flooded social media with reels, TikTok videos and covers in several languages by fans. “It was amazing. I never thought it would go this far. It just shows what music can do,” Yohani shared while revising the track’s virality and how it brought her into limelight in 2021.
