Justin Trudeau Tries To Impress With Bhangra Moves, But Not Everyone’s Saying ‘Balle Balle’

In India right now, the flavour of the season is Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Everything, starting from his Taj Mahal photo op to his Sabarmati Ashram visit has been covered with much aplomb.

In fact, jab Trudeau met Bollywood, wearing the dressiest of sherwanis it pretty much had movie potential! Or at least, that’s what Twitter joked about. But the fact remains that the Canadian family seems to be having incredible amounts of fun living the Bollywood dream. And of course, is any filmy dream complete without the ritual song and dance? No way!

The beats of the dhol seemed to have done the trick! Canadian PM Justin Trudeau could not resist the lure and broke into an impromptu bhangra jig at Canada House in New Delhi!

After a visit to the Golden Temple in Amritsar, the Trudeaus were seen indulging in some cricket with Kapil Dev and Mohammad Azharuddin. It sure looks like Justin Trudeau cannot get enough of all things Indian, because lo and behold! He checked bhangra off his list too!

Dressed yet again in a black sherwani (it seems like a wardrobe staple now), Trudeau was seen shaking a leg to the dhol beats as he stepped on to the stage, cameras a-flashing.

It was just a small jig until he was asked to go ahead and dance away, which is when inhibitions were shed and he did a proper jig for the cameras! Check it out.

Nice moves, Mr. PM!

However, while you and I may commend him for his dancing prowess, not everyone seems to be impressed with how the Canadian PM has been conducting himself on this ‘diplomatic’ trip. And this seems to have irked the critics even more.

He has already been mocked for his OTT dressing during the trip, but now it looks like the people from his own country are his harshest critics.

But first, some appreciation for his talent!

1. Pretty awesome!

2. Can we keep him please?

3. You rock… the dance floor, Mr Trudeau!

4. Umm… maybe he missed the memo!

5. Yep, Canada. You’re not getting him back!

6. You don’t say!

7. Those moves are indeed amazing!

8. Can we get back to you on this?

9. The critics have spoken!

10. Perfect description if there was any!

As a huge chunk of Canadian and Indian population trash Trudeau’s stance during the entire trip, there are also those who have enjoyed how the PM has enthusiastically embraced the culture of the country he has visited, without any inhibitions.

And TBH, you cannot deny, those WERE some killer bhangra moves! But then again, what else can you expect from the PM of ‘Cannedda’!
