Michelle Obama: A complete natural

While the US President Barack Obama went about his usual business the First Lady played hopscotch, engaged with students, and even danced to a Bollywood number.

A dancing Michelle Obama has become the defining image of the Obamas' maiden visit to India. The US First Lady hit the dance floor not just once, but twice.

The whole country watched Michelle Obama shaking a leg to hit Bollywood number Rang De Basanti during her interaction with school kids in Mumbai on Saturday.

Then again on Sunday, while celebrating Diwali with children from a school in south Mumbai, she broke into a jig to join kids performing a Konkani folk dance, even inspiring the US President to join her on the dance floor.

Michelle even shared her experience while growing up with college students.

"Even though my parents couldn't give us material things, they gave me and my brother strong values. They taught us to treat others with dignity and respect, to push for excellence in every single thing we did," Michelle Obama said.

On just her first visit to India, the Michelle Obama impact was strongly felt.

Not only did she connect with Young India, but she also once again emerged as a person with a strong, independent and vibrant personality.
And when it comes to who is the better orator of the Obamas?

It's the US First Lady Michelle, according to President Barack Obama, who said that he doesn't like speaking after his wife because "she is very good".
