May 23 (Punjab Khabarnama) : Aditi Rao Hydari’s Gajagamini walk from Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Netflix show Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar is a rage on social media. Fans across the world are recreating the step, and Aditi also joined the bandwagon during her Cannes Film Festival appearance. The latest celebrity to nail the walk, intentionally or otherwise, is Rajkummar Rao.
Rajkummar’s Gajagamini walk
On Wednesday, Rajkummar’s Mr and Mrs Mahi co-star Janhvi Kapoor took to her Instagram handle and shared a video in which she has her cricket pads on and is ready to bat. Rajkummar, who is bowling, mimics Janhvi’s walk with the pads on. As he walks back to the crease, he does an awkward walk, oddly reminiscent of Aditi’s viral Gajagamini stance in Heeramandi.
Janhvi added the Heeramandi song Saiyyan Hatto Jaao to the video and captioned it as, “Our very own gajagamini walk 🥲 took a minute to get used to all those cricket pads but glad I could amuse u Mr. Mahi (slurrp emoji).” The official Instagram handle of Dharma Productions, which is backing Mr and Mrs Mahi, commented, “That’s the way #TheMahiWay! (laughing with tears emojis).” Orhan Awatramani aka Orry, social media influencer who’s also Janhvi’s close friend, wrote, “@rajkummar_rao >>>” Rajkummar’s Badhaai Do co-star Gulshan Devaiah also left a comment, “Get him to wear leg guards and walk … let’s see kya chaal chalta hai woh (how he walks).”
About Mr and Mrs Mahi
Mr and Mrs Mahi is directed by Sharan Sharma, who is known for his directorial debut Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl. Mr & Mrs Mahi marks the second collaboration between Janhvi and Sharan.
