Deepika Padukone’s ghoomar performed at NBA match to loud cheers

Date:

A group of cheerleaders danced to Deepika Padukone’s Ghoomar song from “Padmaavat” at a National Basketball Association (NBA) match, which was held between Charlotte Hornets and Miami Heat on January 28 in USA.
The Ghoomar dance performed by the girls was spectacular , replete with Bollywood style twirls and gyrations. The spectators seemed to enjoy the dance performance as is evident from the video clip posted by NBA’s official Facebook handle, wherein they can be heard whistling and applauding in the stadium.
Ghoomar is a Rajasthani folk dance form, which is performed by Padukone in a popular song of the movie Padmaavat which is currently ruling the box office. The actress said that it was very ‘challenging’ for her and she reportedly performed 66 twirls while shooting this song for director Sanjay Leela Bhansali to pick the best few from.
Watch the performance here:

Padmaavat” is based on the legend of Rani Padmini of Chittor who is believed to have committed jauhar ( self- immolation) to escape Emperor Alauddin Khilji. Certain groups, belonging mainly to Rajasthan, claim they are concerned that the film wrongly depicts a romance between Padmini and Khilji. Mr Bhansali has repeatedly denied that it does.

Padmaavat”, also starring Ranveer Singh and Shahid Kapoor, was cleared for release by the Censor Board in January along with five modifications. The release of the film was deferred following protests from several Rajput outfits, who objected to the movie alleging that Bhansali has distorted history. “Padmaavat” released on January 25 and is receiving “earth-shattering” response at the box office, as predicted by Deepika Padukone.
