Korean Woman Dances To Aaj Jaane Ki Zid Na Karo On Bengali New Year, Internet Loves It

Traditional forms of dance and music are often associated with celebrations and festivals across the country. Especially in the Bengali culture, festivities and dance are inseparable companions, each enhancing the beauty and vibrancy of the other. Dance plays a pivotal role in Bengali celebrations, adding an extra layer of joy and cultural richness to every occasion. Whether it’s the graceful movements of traditional dances like the Odhishi or the energetic beats of Dhunuchi Naach during Durga Puja, dance is a language that speaks to the soul, bringing communities together.

Very recently, this deep-rooted connection between dance and festivities was beautifully exemplified in an Instagram influencer’s fusion dance which she performed to celebrate the Bengali New Year. Also known as Dasom Her or Luna, this influencer’s Korean-Indian fusion dance performance has now gone viral. The video has been entertaining and gaining praise from the online audiences globally.

Set to the melodious tune of Aaj Jaane Ki Zid Na Karo, originally sung by Farida Khanum, Dasom’s performance is incredibly emotive, showing her apparent mastery of both Indian classical music and dance forms.

In the video, she elegantly draped a handloom saree, using subtle facial expressions and intricate hand gestures to interpret each lyric of the song.

“This song, this dance, has stolen my heart. Shubho Nobo Borsho, my warriors of light! Your presence brings me immense gratitude, and I’m so happy to have you by my side on this journey. My goal is to continue creating content that brings joy to your lives and mine too,” read her caption.

She also wished for her followers’ year to be wrapped in warmth and love. “Sending my love to each and every one of you,” she added.
