Video has been viewed more than six lakhs times and even got appreciation from Irish people. Gurpreet Singh, Charnjit Singh, and Kanwar Singh choreographed the performance beautifully on music by Irish band jiggy and UK-based The Dhol Foundation.
This video set a good example of diversity and love for every culture.
This is a great celebration of cultures, thank you Bhagra dancers!
