Puff Daddy’s unity message to Indian, Oz people

Puff Daddy`s new song talks about atrocities against Indian students in Australia.

Melbourne: Performance artist Curry Puff Daddy has spoken out about the recent spate of violence against Indian students in a new song.
Curry Puff Daddy, real name Lawrence Autar, has written a comic song called ‘Harris Park’, which sends out a powerful message of unity to visiting Indians and the rest of the community in Australia.
"The main message is ``enough is enough, let’s stop this``," a daily quoted Autar as saying. "Harris Park was created to voice that frustration and to say violence is not the way, we don’t need another Cronulla riots," he added. He is says education, awareness and mutual understanding are key to solving the issue. "It’s up to both parties to reach out and mend this," said Autar, who reaches his audience through websites such as iTunes and MySpace. “We’re not all that different, we’re all human and we have our faults," he added. However, Autar is not the only one to use entertainment as a way of promoting unity with the Indian community. On Saturday, Parramatta Park will host a mammoth concert starring Indian composer A. R. Rahman, best known for his Oscar-winning score for the film ‘Slumdog Millionaire’. ANI
