Chandigarh, January 18

A mash-up clip of the late American singer’s Jailhouse Rock music video on the tune of ‘Aaja ni aaja’ by Hardeep Singh has gone viral.

The video shows the king of rock, Elvis Presley, ‘singing’ and dancing to the Punjabi song. Elvis Presley is seen grooving to some fantastic desi beats in the clip that has charmed thousands of social media viewers.

The video was shared on Twitter by Indian-born American lawyer Preet Bharara, who wrote: “This is the most brilliant thing on the internet right now.”

Below is the video:

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
