The overnight notoriety and fame brought upon India’s ‘Dancing Uncle’ a la Sanjeev Srivastav is a testimony to the power of internet.
The dancing-enthusiast, whose viral video of a super-perky dance performance from a family function, landed him on national television even has a professional name now – ‘Dabbu the Dancer.’
Srivastav, who’s always been fond of Govinda-esque Bollywood-inspired dancing, couldn’t have imagined that a random performance at a private ceremony would make make internet’s favorite celeb within a few days.
So “Dabbu the Dancer” – the viral overnight-sensation of internet, who’s so far already had a tryst with Bollywood celebs like Suniel Shetty and Salman Khan, finally got to meet with that one person he has apparently been inspired by the most – Govinda.
Govinda, whom Srivastava considers his ‘dancing Guru/, invited the aspirant to his TV show ‘Dance Deewane’ where he also got to meet with the fabulous, Madhuri Dixit.
