Chandigarh, September 18
A jawdropping Bhangra video on Daddy Yankee’s Gasolina has gone viral.
The dance was performed by a group named ‘Folking Desi’.
This video shows a splendid cultural fusion act. A group of boys in black kurta and chudidar, wearing colourful turbans, groove to the beats.
Towards the end of the video, the group uses Sapp – a traditional folk instrument of Punjab and is mostly seen being used as a prop in Punjab’s native dance forms.
Sharing the video on Instagram, the group said: “We did this X years back, but watching it still makes us wanna get up and dance! Gasolina x Bhangra is a combo – do you agree?”.
The video shared on September 4 has garnered more than 90 thousand views and has more than 850 comments.
For the unversed, ‘Gasolina’ is a reggaeton song written by Daddy Yankee and Eddie Ávila for Daddy Yankee’s 2004 album Barrio Fino. The track was released as the album’s lead single in November 2004.
