Indian weddings are a big and elaborate affair. During the celebrations, the thumping beats of dhol are so energetic that hardly anyone can resist shaking a leg against them. Now a South Korean groom also got a taste of a fat Indian wedding when ‘baratis‘made him dance to Punjabi’boli‘ – couplets in Punjabi conveying typical situations and their emotions.
On Instagram, user ‘currynkimchi’ shared a video of South Korean groom, Jimin, dancing to a ‘boli‘ which was sung by a wedding guest at his Indian wedding. In the clip, Jimin dressed in traditional ‘sherwani‘, is seen sitting atop a horse as a man chants the Punjabi ‘boli‘ “Baari barsi khatan gya si”. He is then seen dancing along to the dhol beats after the man standing next to him finished reciting his Punjabi verses.
“Jimin oppa just knew he had to dance after! Wish I could attend my baraat too. Boli partner @amannoberoi shukria char chand lagane ko! PS: Special thanks to my office colleagues for the shor,” the post caption read .

A third user commented, “Congratulations guys! Wish you all the luck in the future”, while a fourth commented, “Punjabi boli = good luck, even if Jija ji is Korean”.
The South Korean groom, Jimin, married his Indian bride Shivangi. The two posted a number of videos from their wedding on Instagram. In another video, the couple can also be seen dancing to the Korean hit song Gangnam style by Psy.
“If my husband doesn’t dance like that at our wedding, I’m not getting married,” said one user. “They enjoy the long awaited love story the most,” wrote another.
