Kareena and Neha’s ghoomar phenomenon

Filed under:

First it was Dil Vich Lagiya Ve and now its the Ghoomar song from Himesh Reshammiyas soundtrack of UTVs Chup Chup Ke thats catching peoples fancies. Kareena Kapoor and Neha Dhupia are actually involved in doing the traditional ghoomar, which is one of the most colorful and lively North-Indian dances from the state of Rajasthan. The ghoomar was integral to the culture of Jaipur royalty and the name has been derived from the Hindi word, ghoomna (pirouette), where resplendently dressed women move smoothly and gracefully in circles.

In Chup Chup Ke, interestingly, it was a south-Indian choreographer from Priyadarshans camp, Prasanna, who got Kareena and Neha to do the North-Indian dance, the end of which is reportedly a turning point in the film. Kareenas outfit (see picture) for the song has been designed by the ace designer Manish Malhotra and costs a bomb. It seems Manish took great care in the detailing of Kareenas sari and is even said to have bought authentic antique silver accessories from the state of Rajasthan to embellish Kareenas outfit!
