The man in the clip is professor Sanjeev Shrivastava, who teaches in the electronics department at the Bhabha Engineering Research Institute in Bhopal. The 46-year-old man, who hails from Vidisha district was dancing at his brother-in-law's wedding in Gwalior on May 12 where someone shot this video.

Talking to Hindustan Times, Shrivastava said that his mother was a classical dancer. ''I have been dancing since 1982. Dance is a god-gifted talent in me. I was inspired by my mother Mohini Devi Shrivastava who has been a classical dancer. I have not got any formal training.
