&ldquo;I have my own YouTube channel called Mithila Palkar which has 392 subscribers right now. I had done a cover of Frank Sinatra&rsquo;s song &lsquo;Can&rsquo;t take my eyes off you&rsquo; on which I had a comment which said I should do a Marathi song. This song is me fulfilling that request,&rdquo; says Palkar, former MMK College student who started the YouTube channel, when in college. She has learnt Hindustani classical music.
Palkar says Hollywood star Anna Kendrick was her inspiration. &ldquo;I have seen many covers of the song, I wanted to do something different. Hailing from a Marathi family, the Marathi song was part of my consciousness since childhood. I felt it went well with the beats so I chose to sing the number,&rdquo; says the actress.
Palkar feels the Internet is a powerful medium, and enjoys putting up videos of herself. &ldquo;The Internet is the place to be. In between auditioning for films I am looking forward to doing more videos online,&rdquo; Palkar signs off.
