New Year smiles: Deepika Padukone swaying to Shakira’s ‘Hips Don’t Lie’ is graceful as it’s funny

Hips really don’t lie. They can tell if there is grace in your step. And there is plenty of that as Deepika Padukone sways to the lyrics made famous by the Colombian pop star Shakira. She doesn’t actually. It is just her “Ghoomar dance” from the film Padmaavat synced with Shakira’s soundtrack. But the effect is delightful as it is hilarious, especially her step on the chorus, “I’m on tonight, you know my hips don’t lie.”

This video came to me through one of those pesky WhatsApp groups – but it made my day.
