Pop sensation Dua Lipa rocked the stage in Mumbai with her electrifying performance on Saturday night. The singer, who is no stranger to the city, got all the Bollywood fans in the house hooting and cheering with her desi mash-up.
The singer performed a fan-made mash-up of her hit track Levitating with Shah Rukh Khan’s classic song ‘Woh Ladki Jo‘ from the 1999 film ‘Baadshah‘. The moment from the gig delighted the fans in attendance and also sparked off a social media frenzy.
Videos of Dua vibing to the mash-up quickly went viral, with fans praising her for embracing Indian pop culture. One of the most notable reactions came from Shah Rukh Khan’s daughter, Suhana Khan. Sharing a clip from the concert on her Instagram Stories, Suhana added heart-eyes, zany face, and dancing woman emojis, showing her excitement over the cool collab.
Fans were equally thrilled, with one tweeting, “DUA LIPA YOU QUEEN!! She saw the reels and performed the iconic mashup!!!”
“Dua Lipa did not miss the meme Levitating x Woh Ladki,” another commented, while others speculated how epic the moment would have been if Shah Rukh himself had made a surprise appearance.
“Levitating x Woh Ladki Jo mashup finally reached its destination. Dua Lipa is such a queen for this!” Tweeted another.
This isn’t the first time Dua Lipa has expressed her admiration for the Bollywood Badshah. During her visit to India in 2019, the singer met the superstar and shared a memorable moment, with SRK later encouraging her to try his iconic pose.
This concert marks Dua’s third visit to India, following her debut performance in 2019 and a recent holiday in Rajasthan. Speaking to the fans at the gig she said, “Thank you for having us. I have spent a fair bit of time in India, travelling and coming a little bit for work and I’m so taken aback by the culture and the energy and the people. And, I’ll keep coming back. Tonight feels very special because I started my year in Mumbai and I feel like I am wrapping it up here as well. So thank you so much for allowing me to be here tonight, doing what I love doing the most.”
