FABULOUS! I am an Israeli and I have heard HAVA NAGILA A MILLION TIMES, and this version was, in my opinion, one of the best;  a delight to the ears, heart and soul. Any Israeli who disagrees, is ignorant of the history of this song.  She sings the song with joy and pure delight. Kol ha Kavod to Amrutam Gamaya.  By the way, we have many  Indian Jews in Israel, and I have no doubt they are truly enjoying Amrutam singing one of our folk songs.

It's stunning indeed! I see for the first time in my life Indians perform Jewish songs. Although, to be fair, I've also never seen Israelites performing Indian songs.

[sashajohnson]

I'm Jewish and I find this to be beyond amazing. I think this group is so talented and redid this classic folk song in the most respectful and beautiful way. Keep making music.

[jacobidiculas]

A great rendition of Hava Nagila with an Indian touch!

[laurie]

Dear Amrutam Gamaya and Group. This is a wonderful rendition. Your heart and soul and passionate singing and instrumentals gave me chills! You have interpreted this song so beautifully. I loved how the music reflects both the Indian and Jewish elements. I could hear both! You are all so talented. Thank you!
