An Indian man missing for 40 years reunites with his family after a YouTube video of him singing a popular Hindi film song went viral. Firoze Shakir, a street photographer, shot the video and uploaded it to YouTube in October last year. Khomdram Gambhir Singh was 26 when in 1978 he left his home in Imphal and never returned. For four decades his family heard nothing.
Then a clip showing a grey-bearded man singing a Bollywood song on a Mumbai street 3,300 kilometres away appeared online.
