The Chennai dancers’ choreography for the popular Bollywood number has garnered over 15 million views, and is a social media superhit
When Prithviraj and Rani Mukerji grooved to Dreamum Wakeupum in 2012, it created quite a stir as the incredibly-catchy ode to the ‘80s found a perfect match with the actors’ outrageous expressions and moves. Now, almost a decade later, the song is trending again, thanks to two Chennai dancers who have captured the imagination of Instagram users with a 30-second Reel. Priyanka Nair and Sindhuja Hari had no idea that their simple choreography would result in over 15 million views — and counting — when they decided to pay tribute to the jaunty song from Aiyyaa, which was composed by Amit Trivedi.
