The veteran Indian opener, Shikhar Dhawan took to Instagram and shared a video of him dancing with his son Zoravar that not only caught the attention of his fans but also of the West Indies legend Brian Lara. Dhawan, who is spending time at home amid coronavirus pandemic, is using the forced break from cricket to enhance some of his forgotten skills like taking boxing classes from his wife Ayesha or dancing to classic Bollywood songs.
In the video, Shikhar can be seen trying to do the ‘siren beat’ challenge but the southpaw was interrupted by his son Zoravar who’s special cameo turns the video into a hilarious one. Captioning the video, Dhawan wrote: “Dance ki asli jodi Like father, like son! #tiktok.”

“Jatt ji chaa gye tuc,” a fan said. “Gabbar, you are my fav,” another one joined in.
