Korean Ambassador's 'Naatu Naatu' Dance Wins Approval Of PM Modi

It wouldn't be incorrect to claim that SS Rajamouli has managed to get everyone hooked to RRR's electrifying song 'Naatu Naatu'. The song has become an international rage. It has been getting a lot of love and attention from people all across the world, whether it be for the catchy hook steps or the upbeat sounds. 

Every now and then, we come across videos of influencers and fans recreating and dancing to the hit song, which has also been nominated in the Best Music (Original Song) category for the Oscars 2023. The Korean Embassy in India joined the trend and shared a video of Korean Ambassador Chang Jae-bok along with Korean staff working in the embassy grooving to the hit song. 

In the beginning of the video, two female Korean employees in kurtas perform the hook step. The action then changes to the lawns of the embassy, where the Ambassador is joined by two other staffers as they groove to composer MM Keeravani's award winning song.

As the video progresses, two embassy employees are seen dressed like actors Ram Charan and Jr NTR as they don white shirts and grey trousers with suspender belts. In the last bit of the clip, the entire embassy staff and diplomats gather in the gardens to stage a flash mob.
