    ...I saw an Indian film won Oscar for best song...'Naatu Naatu'. I thought I would have a look to see what the fuss was about expecting the usual 'Bollywood' style singing with lots of echo and reverb on the voice with a large choreographed chorus line.

    Well....yes and no!! The premise and the couple of lines of dialogue in the clip are 'well cheesy' but the actual dancing make the... "Dance off Bro." sequence in Guardians of the Galaxy look really tame.

    I generally hate musicals and suspect I would probably not enjoy the film but the clip is something else with the sheer energy on show.

    Give it a watch to brighten your day if you haven't already seen it.

    I heard a very short clip of it this morning on the radio and liked it. I’ll have a look at it after work, thanks.

    It Is the dance routine that reality makes it magical. Incredible energy ( even if in reality it was shot in short multiple sequences). Great creative use of variable speed edits too. Worthy winner IMO.

    Its from RRR, which an absolutely outstanding film with some of the best action sequences I have ever seen, If you have Netflix give it a go and you won't be disappointed.

    Slayer doing an operatic Indian raga would be worth a listen.
