Google is inviting users in India to bring in the year 2021 with a virtual New Year's Eve party on YouTube. Called ‘Hello 2021 India', the virtual party will premiere at 11pm IST on December 31 on YouTube and feature performances from celebrities such as actor Tiger Shroff, rapper Badshah, and singer Jonita Gandhi. The virtual party will be hosted by comedian Zakir Khan. Google has also launched a party popper icon to celebrate the new year on Search.
The blue and yellow party popper that appears on typing ‘New Year's Eve' on Google's search bar releases confetti that fills the screen for a few seconds. It also emits a popping sound akin to using an actual party popper. There seems to be no limit to the number of times users can click on the party popper and enjoy the virtual celebration.
