10 Feb – It hasn't been a week since Namewee dropped the music video for his song, "Curry & Roti", and yet it has now reached over 4.4 million views on YouTube.
The music video, which was released on 4 February, has now been viewed over 4.4 million times, with most commenters expressing how much they enjoyed the song, dance and the funny lyrics. "It made me laugh till my stomach hurts," said one commenter. "Let's introduce this song to the whole of India and make it trending there. It should be a hit," said another.
It is noted that the movie, which was released on 27 January, climbed up straight to number two in the Malaysian box office weekend, falling only one spot following the release of Roland Emmerich's "Moonfall" and Jack Neo's "Ah Girls Go Army".
