Canada’s newly elected Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is many things — he is the second youngest PM in the world at 43 and, if social media is anything to go by, one of the most good-looking. He is a former French teacher, boxer and has worked as a whitewater guide, snowboard instructor, bartender, bouncer, a public speaker and an advocate for various causes.
But to make that already impressive skill set more appealing, especially to Indians, it turns out that Trudeau is an accomplished bhangra dancer as well.
A recently released YouTube video shows the young and handsome politician is a dancer so good, he can pull off dancing bhangra in a white kurta-pyjama to a Bollywood song. However, the video is certainly dated and shows a much younger, long-haired Trudeau.
The video, which was uploaded a day after he lead his party to a landslide victory in the Canadian general Elections, shows him energetically shaking a leg to Dil Bole Hadippa at an India Canada Association of Montreal event. Girls dressed in the colours of the Indian flag get him on the dance floor and Trudeau goes all out in, what we must say, is typical bhangra style.
The video created quite a buzz among Indian Twitteratis as they appreciated both his bhangra skills and traditional outfit.
That's it. Only voting for a politician as PM if he can shake his groove thang like this. https://t.co/OZzdsY7SCw
