This video on the occasion of Holi will surely fill your heart with joy! It shows an Iranian woman dancing to the famous song Jab Tak Hai Jaan Jaane Jahan from the blockbuster, ‘Sholay’.
The video that went viral on Twitter is divided into three parts. Shared by @Sheri_happy, it shows a group of Iranian partygoers re-enacting the song from Sholay complete with all the characters – there is a tied-up Veeru, Gabbar and his henchmen and of course Basanti!
Watch it!
The video begins with the woman playing Hema Malini’s Basanti, entering the scene and dancing to the song. As she dances, a man playing the character of Veeru stands in the background with his hands tied to the door. Two men playing Gabbar and Sambha also stand and watch the woman dance. And they have fake guns, India Today reported.
The video blew up after a Twitter user @KavehAbbasian retweeted the video, and it finally reached the Indian audiences, who loved every second of it.
“I hope this tweet somehow finds its way to the Indian Twitter. This is the Iranian generation that grew up with Indian movies and on top of all the absolute Bollywood gem that was Sholay (1975), which is the film that these party goers are humorously re-enacting. Made my day,” the Twitter user wrote while sharing the tweet.
India Twitter loved the clip garnering more than 76,000 views and several thousand likes.
Netizens also took to the comments section to praise the partygoers.
