New Delhi: <\/b><\/p>\n

Bollywood disco numbers “Jimmy Jimmy” and “I am a disco dancer” were among songs played at a party for delegates at the regional summit of\u00a0Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) in Samarkand, Uzbekistan, that concluded on Friday.<\/p>\n

A viral video\u00a0shows three singers, with a woman in the lead, dressed in formal black, singing some lines from the two songs, both made by the late Bappi Lahiri for the 1982 movie\u00a0Disco Dancer, which shot lead actor Mithun Chakraborty to instant stardom.<\/p>\n

As delegates from different countries danced to it \u2014 some even singing along \u2014 the moment ended up as a tribute to Bappi Lahiri, who died earlier this year, and a nod to Mithun Chakraborty’s stardom.<\/p>\n

After the two Hindi songs, both heavily inspired by English songs, the singer switches to another language and the video cuts off.\u00a0It wasn’t immediately clear which ones of the leaders or delegates were present.<\/p>\n

Some social media users said the video shows how Hindi movies and songs travel across the region, if not the world. “The erstwhile USSR states\u00a0are big fans of Mithun Chakraborty and Raj Kapoor. I went to Armenia back in July; my tour guide knew those two,\u00a0and the ‘disco dancer’ song, very well,” said Rahul Anand on Twitter.<\/p>\n

“These songs are famous in all Central Asian countries and Russia,” said another Twitter user, DP Mishra.<\/p>\n

On the serious side of things,\u00a0Prime Minister Narendra Modi met with Russian President Vladimir Putin on the sidelines of the summit.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Excellency, I know today’s time is not a time for war,” PM Modi told Vladimir Putin in their first face-to-face meeting since Moscow’s forces invaded Ukraine.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The comments from PM Modi came a day after President Putin acknowledged that China \u2014 Russia’s key ally \u2014 had “concerns” over the conflict in Ukraine.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
