A video of an Indonesian singer singing a Bollywood song at a wedding is now going viral. Taufiq Lida, who is an anchor and a singer at weddings, recently shared a video on Instagram in which he can be seen singing the Bollywood hit “Humko Humise Chura Lo” from the 2000 film Mohabbatein, starring Shah Rukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai.
But what was so special about this viral video? Not only was Taufiq singing perfect notes for the 2000 Hindi hit, but the Indonesian man could also pull off the female voice perfectly!
Just as he begins to sing the part picturised on Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, a woman is seen crossing him. The pause Taufiq took while resuming the song, as the woman moved away from the screen, has prompted many people to joke that "Aishwarya" made a timely entry during the performance.
The Internet was taken by storm when Taufiq showcased his talent with this melodious Udit Narayan and Lata Mangeshkar song. The video has over 1.8 lakh likes on Instagram and is being shared widely.
Netizens were in total awe of the man who hit the perfect feminine note and highlighted that Hindi was not even his first language. Not only was the video loved in Indonesia, but Indians also poured in their love for it.
“Considering Hindi is not his first language - he killed it,” a social media user commented.
“Too good,” one said. Another commented, "Indonesia. Waah Wahh."
“Viral all over India. Respect to you, man. Love from India,” another added.
"Was Lata Mangeshkar your grandmother, bro?" a user asked jokingly.
“Lagta hai ex ki shadi meh gaya hai (Seems like he is at an ex's wedding),” another joked.
Notably, this isn't Taufiq Lida's first video of him singing a Bollywood song that has gone viral. In April, he sang “Pyar Dilon Ka Mela Hai” from the 2000 film Dulhan Hum Le Jayenge, which also went viral.
