Aaja Nachle

 

Just before dinner, I was listening to some 1980s bhangra from the greatest of bands of Punjabi music, Heera. I’m sort of stuffed now, otherwise I could have been dancing like the guys in the GIF above. These fellas are from the Maritime Bhangra Group of Halifax in Canada.

Vijay’s classic GIFs 2007-2011 – 67

 

From the Lion King, we move onto one of the kings of bhangra (Punjabi music), Harbhajan Mann, who perhaps is more well-known as an actor in Punjabi films but has put out a few good dhol and tumbi numbers. Here he is in the guise of a bhangra dancer. Oh balle balle!!

BTW this is the last GIF I saved in 2007. Roll on 2008.

Gifville wishes all our readers a very happy Diwali!!

Lights sparkle on and around the Golden Temple of Amritsar, in Punjab, India. This is the holiest place of worship for Sikhs, who also celebrate Diwali.
