Hollywood star Joseph Gordon-Levitt is currently in India as one of the key speakers at the Indian Film Project (IFP) in Mumbai. During an engaging session with Bollywood actor Rajkummar Rao, things took a fun turn when Rajkummar decided to teach Joseph some classic Bollywood dance moves. The actor nailed the choreography for the hit song Kati Raat Maine Kheton Mein Tu Ayi Nahin, which has been going viral since its release, featuring Shraddha Kapoor and the lead cast including Pankaj Tripathi, Abhishek Banerjee and Aparshakti Khurana. Joseph perfectly picked up the steps and even joined Rajkummar for a spontaneous Bollywood-style jig on stage, earning loud applause from the audience. Before he attempted the steps, Joseph said, “This is what I wanted.”
In another segment, the celebrated actor also tried garba. The actor shook a leg to Chogada Tara – a garba staple – from Aayush Sharma and Warina Hussain’s film Loveyatri.
