Velfies the new selfies (pics)

Short videos changing democratic process

Move over selfies, the ‘Velfies’ are here! The new trend is capturing short videos from apps and uploading them online. From lip-syncing famous movie scenes to interviewing job candidates the new fad is catching fast in India with Bollywood stars jumping on the wagon, while a number of politicians are using the apps to promote their political agendas and boost their campaigns. In the Dehli local election recently candidates were talking directly to the electorate through velfies.
