Naatu Naatu fever is at an all-time high after the song won an Oscar during the 95th Academy Awards. Social media is flooded with posts congratulating the team on their historic win. Some people are even doing so with beautiful dance performances. Just like the German Embassy staff recently did and that too after being challenged by South Korean Embassy staff. They took to the streets of Chandni Chowk in Old Delhi to celebrate the song’s win. And their performance won them praises from PM Narendra Modi.
“The colours and flavours of India! Germans can surely dance and dance well!” PM Modi tweeted as he re-shared a video tweeted by German Ambassador to India Dr Philipp Ackermann.
Business tycoon Anand Mahindra also re-shared video along with a praiseful caption. “The German Ambassador & embassy staff & their rendition of NaatuNaatu in Chandni Chowk. Following the Korean Embassy’s lead. I love the way this is turning into a diplomatic Olympics of one-upmanship! Ok, which nation’s embassy is next up?” he tweeted.
“Germans can't dance? Me & my Indo-German team celebrated NaatuNaatu’s victory at Oscar95 in Old Delhi. Ok, far from perfect. But fun! Thanks rokEmbIndia for inspiring us. Congratulations & welcome back Ram Charan & RRR movie team! Embassy challenge is open. Who's next?” Dr Philipp Ackermann wrote as he shared the video on his official Twitter handle.
The video opens to show some amazing shots of daily life in Old Delhi. The clip shows several things from food being prepared to people enjoying the tasty street foods. As the video progresses, Dr Philipp Ackerman enters the scene and receives a baton with the words “Naatu Naatu” and flag of South Korea printed on it. Recently, the South Korean Embassy staff took social media by storm with their performance to the hit track - so much so, they too received words of praise from PM Narendra Modi.
Talking about the video, it further shows the German ambassador and his Indo-German team dancing to the Oscar-winning song. They keep on dancing enthusiastically as people around them enjoy their performance and record them too.
