Govinda on dancing uncle
Recently, a video of a couple dancing on stage at a wedding went viral on social media. The man identified as Sanjeev Shrivastava, said that he is inspired by Govinda.
You must be living under a rock to not know about the latest internet crush -- ‘Dancing Uncle’ whose videos went viral after he was spotted dancing at a wedding with his wife, aping Govinda’s dance styles to a 90’s song.
The man in the video identified as Sanjeev Shrivastava has now earned himself the title of "Dancing Uncle" after his videos went viral.
It all started when Sanjeev danced to Govinda’s song “Aap Ke Aa Jane Se”, copying the superstar’s dance steps in the video. The video was shot on May 12, 2018 during a ‘sangeet night’ of Sanjeev’s brother-in-law in Gwalior.
Sanjeev is a 46-year-old electronics professor from Madhya Pradesh.
After earning accolades from many Bollywood celebrities, the man whom Sanjeev considers an inspiration has responded. Superstar Govinda in an interaction with a website said, “I finally saw the videos. I saw how he was dancing and I really liked what he was doing. I have come to know that he is a professor and his name in Sanjeev Shrivastava. The way he has copied my steps, he has done it so well. He is so much into it. More than half a dozen heroes have copied my steps, and nobody has done it so well! It felt like he was dancing with all his heart and having fun. And his wife also seemed like she was smiling ‘mann-hi-mann mein’. It was a treat watching them dance like this.”
