Bollywood Dance Classes: An Ideal Choice for Beginners with Ucanji
Bollywood! Oh, the gift of Bollywood. Is there a more freeing dance form out there? Quite possibly, not. The choreography can range from anything between super easy and oh, ‘so complex!’ This is precisely why, even when you seek Dance classes in India for Bollywood-style dancing, you’ll find the same for the entire range of dancers from beginners to experts. 
Tumblr media
In fact, we’d go as far as saying that if you’re a novice dancer, and are having a hard time picking your first dance style to learn, Bollywood could be an easy choice! 
Think about it! 
-        It’s the most common type of music played in clubs, weddings, and other special occasions. That means you will have no problem finding an avenue to flaunt your new skill, from the moment you begin to get the hang of it. 
-        The familiar lyrics will be your guide on the dance floor, even when you haven’t prepared a routine. And if you’re dancing in a crowd, you’ll always have enough enthusiasts around you to seek inspiration from. Basically, one can dance to this type of music for as long as their stamina allows. The best part is, the more you dance, the more stamina you build for the next round of dancing. 
-        The movements and common steps you’ll learn in Dance classes for Bollywood are easy enough to get your body used to move around the way it’s supposed to move around while dancing. 
-        On the other hand, the steps are just enough technical that it will prepare your brain to form a strong sense of coordination between rhythm and movement. 
-        And of course, the high energy of most Bollywood music will give you a great workout opportunity, every time you get on the dance floor. You end up using your entire body when grooving to Indian music, so, not only are you setting yourself up for a nice weight loss workout, but also an amazing cardiovascular workout. 
-        Bollywood is informal by nature - with no limitations of boring rules and guidelines. It has elements from dance forms from around the world, including Indian classical, salsa, jive, and basically, any other dance form at all. Any swift motion of the body could pretty much be considered a Bollywood dance form as long as you follow the beat and do it with grace! And a little attitude, of course. 
Tumblr media
Are you sold, yet? If not, just think of the fact that Learning Bollywood dance is as good for your soul as it is for your mind and body. Because let’s face it, Bollywood means happiness! If just listening to our beloved homegrown music can make you so happy, imagine what effect fully engrossing yourself into it, on the floor, will have on you? 
Here are some music choices, if you are a true beginner. These are easy to dance to songs, whether you want to take formal training or dance away in an unhinged fashion - 
●       Kesariya
●       Balam Pichkari
●       Dance Meri Rani
●       Kusu Kusu
●       Vaathi Coming 
We hope you found the inspiration you were looking for to get started on your journey to dance. Learning Dance will be one of the most joyous experiences of your life!

The dresses that are worn during a Bhangra performance are very bright, bold and colorful to symbolize the joyful and celebratory nature of the occasion.

This is why the clothing worn by the dancers are loose fitting so as to ensure that body movement isn’t constricted. Bright shades generally mean different things. For example, Yellow is used to symbolize sarson or mustard, green symbolizes prosperity and red/saffron symbolizes the auspicious occasion itself.
The wearing of the turban by male dancers is very important as it represents the pride as well as honor of the people of Punjab.

Panjabi MC - Mundian To Bach Ke 2002
"Mundian To Bach Ke", also titled "Beware of the Boys (Mundian To Bach Ke)" or "Beware", is a bhangra music song produced by British musician Panjabi MC, with vocals and lyrics by Punjabi artist Labh Janjua. The song was produced by Panjabi MC in Birmingham, England, for his 1998 album Legalised. In addition to features of bhangra music, "Mundian To Bach Ke" also uses the bass line and part of the beat from "Fire It Up" (1997) by Busta Rhymes, which in turn is based around a sample from the television theme song for Knight Rider. Following its release as a single in November 2002, "Mundian To Bach Ke" achieved worldwide success, topping the singles charts in Italy and Wallonia and charting highly in many other countries. A remix of the song, released in 2003 and featuring American rapper Jay-Z, also charted highly in North America and Australia. The song sold an estimated 10 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling singles of all time. "Mundian To Bach Ke" was released as a single in Germany on 25 November 2002. It sold over 100,000 in the first two days alone and debuted at number two on the German Singles Chart. On the Italian Singles Chart, the song reached number one for three weeks. In the UK, it was issued through Instant Karma and debuted at its peak of number five on the UK Singles Chart; it was the first bhangra song to reach the UK top 10. It has been featured in many movies and tv shows as well as the dance games Dance Central 3 and Just Dance 4. However, it has not, as many rebloggers claimed, been used in Slumdog Millionaire......... It recieved a total of 78% yes votes!

geeeeeez, obsessed with your indian princess pic!!!!! Like finally get some of that masala content...What do you think about roadtrip with bakugou or bakusquad and they are all jamming on Punjabi playlist (kinni kinni, 9:45, one love, softly etc) or like bakugou finding the reader dancing Bhangra on one love randomly like that hot pink crop top girl.
(you can search it up on yt)
Thank youuuu and yes I know Tumblr was seriously lacking some Desi content. I'm South Indian so I don't know how accurate I'm going to get this but I'm gonna call on the "unity in diversity" into my blood for this one. Hope you enjoyy~
It's been two years since Bakugou and you started dating and half a year since you two moved in together. You two had a whole lot more in common than you initially thought and he thoroughly enjoyed being in your company. You made him (begrudgingly) admit that he loves the Punjabi nicknames you throw at him from time to time.
"Hello Jaan!"
"Haaye mera shonaa"
"Tch, don't call me weird stuff, dumbass!"
And living with you for these past few months brought him so much closer to the person you were at heart and your adorable annoying habits.
Including your random energy spurts which concludes in you dancing around the house.
Now how could anyone ever blame you for dancing your heart out? Indian music just slapped and listening to Shubh just awakens your Punjabi ancestors and you have to dance lest you die from embarrassment.
Bakugou comes out of the kitchen at 6:30 in the morning with a cup of strong coffee to wake up and there you are blasting One Love on your speakers in your flowy pajama pants and a wide grin on your face.
Bakugou looks at you quizzically as you place the speaker on the table and... Oh.
You break out into a dance while singing your pretty little heart out to the song and he watches you in amazement.
He watches your footwork, the seemingly carefree flow of the song and your body moving along to the rhythm with an ear splitting grin on your face. He can't help the small smile that creeps on his face as he watches you over the rim of his cup.
You laugh as your dance number ends and Bakugou along with it.
Bakugou walks up to you to wrap you in his arms as you jump onto him. He kisses your cheek as you giggle.
"So, was that a Hindi song?"
The question earns him a small smack on his shoulder.
"No fudu, that was a Punjabi song. Come on, I'll teach you some steps!"
Next thing you two know, you're teaching him the steps you just played in front of him and the entire morning is spent laughing and groaning and repeating the song over and over again until the both of you are in sync.
Safe to say, Bakugou has never danced so hard and he's always singing One Love under his breath when he thinks no one is listening. (You do tho, you just smile and don't address it in case he stops doing it).
Ok! That's the end of that. I really hope you liked it, I tried my best with it and if there's any problems with the representation here please let me know. I wanna make the requests as accurately as possible!

Learn Interesting facts about Indian Classical Dance Styles
From expressing emotions to narrating a story, dancing is a way to connect with people. Apart from keeping you fit and healthy, dancing is also a way of celebration, especially in India. Dancing is something that Indians value highly. The classical dance forms reflect the beauty of our cultural heritage. These dance forms connect you to your roots, yet enable you to explore the global horizon of dancing. Indian Classical Dances beautifully represent India’s vibrant culture through music, costumes, and jewellery. These dances add the flavour of tradition along with regional beauty.
Tumblr media
The foundation of each classical dance is built upon layers of historic culture, art, politics, and revolution & reforms. We bring you the glimpses of classical history of India. Explore the beauty of Indian Classical Dances with our online dance classes. But first, let’s glance down at some interesting facts about these Classical Dance forms.
Bharatanatyam Dance
The name Bharatanatyam is derived from two words, ‘Bharata’ and ‘Natyam’, which denote dance that melodiously, expresses bhaavam, ragam, and talam. This beautiful classical dance is a blend of emotions, rhythm, and expressions. The beauty of Bharatanatyam is that it includes all the traditional aspects that beautify a dance – postures, facial expressions, and narrative dancing. The origin of this dance form can be traced back to the 2000-year-old Devdasi tradition in the temples of South India. Our online Bharatanatyam Dance Classes will take you on a heritage voyage of India’s rich tradition.
Kuchipudi Dance
Another graceful classical dance form of India is Kuchipudi which is a delightful blend of dance and drama. The musical instruments used in Kuchipudi Dance are the ones associated with Carnatic music, which are the Mridangam, Saraswati Veena, the Manjira, Sarpeti, Tanpura, Violin, and Kanjira. Dedicated learning of seven to ten years is required to master this dance drama. The movements in Kuchipudi Dance are faster than any other classical dance.
Kathak Dance
Kathak is the artistic narration of story-telling. The beauty of Kathak Dance is that it’s a graceful blend of facial expressions, rapid footwork, and poised movements. The beauty of learning Kathak Dance is that you get to explore the swift pirouettes, unique rhythmic movement, and poetic lyrical expression. There are dozens of classical instruments that are used for a Kathak performance. For instance, the use of Tabla harmonises with the rhythmic foot movements of the dancer and also creates a beautiful jugalbandi. Manjira, harmonium, and sarangi are some of the musical instruments that are used in Kathak Dancing. This oldest and greatest dance form of India is preserved and cultivated through generations in history. Our online dance class offers three levels of courses – beginners, intermediate and advanced. Kathak is probably the only dance form that can be started at any juncture of life. The more mature you get, the more poised your steps will be.
Tumblr media
Kathakali Dance
The dance drama from the state of Kerala is also a tale narration that is communicated to the audience through intricate footwork and impressive facial gestures and hand movements. The artistic dance performance is complemented by music and vocal performance. The vivid makeup, unique face masks, and heavy costumes are the highlights of Kathakali Dance. This age-old art performance traditionally starts at dusk and is performed through dawn, and sometimes even for several nights. Music plays a significant role in Kathakali Dance in setting the mood for different scenes. Even the voice artists modulate their voices to match the mood and express the temperament of the character.
Sattriya Dance
Sattriya is a classical dance form from Assam, which beautifully symbolises the expression of devotion. What’s unique about this dance form is that it involves dramatic acting (abhinaya) along with dancing. Unlike the other classical dances, the Sattriya Dance has been left untouched and therefore, has been the same since its birth. This classical dance form is usually based primarily on the stories of Krishna-Radha relations, or sometimes on the stories of Ram-Sita. Originally, the Sattriya dance was performed only by Bhokots (male monks) as part of their rituals or to mark special festivals and events. Today, Sattriya is also performed on stage by men and women, based on themes that are not just mythological.
India is a land of cultural beauty and traditional richness. The country's artistic history can be witnessed in these classical and folk dances of India. Dive into the beauty of these beautiful dance forms and learn to embrace the graces of these Classical dance forms. Our online dance classes will let you explore the world of classical dances and their beauty.

Tu Maan Meri Jaan
Jake Seresin x Desi!Reader Headcanon + The Dagger Squad and Maverick
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
A/N: Hey Guys! So, @girl-in-the-chairs-void and I sort of slipped into the topic of conversation of a Jake getting married to a Desi woman and we both were so in love with the idea that we came up with this. I want to thank you, Pav, for always helping me break out of creative blocks and always being there for me in general. And ofc, I also want to thank you for working with me to create something that can desi and brown girls in this fandom can relate to. To all you, We hope you love it! Now, even I sometimes forget some of the terms that are used for Indian wedding functions so I’ll try to drop a quick explanation in parenthesis after specific terms 😊 But if I miss anything or you’re confused, just let me know in a comment and I’ll be sure to explain it.
Also, A few months ago I saw a reel on Glen’s Instagram of him at Nick and Priyanka Chopra Jonas’ Diwali party so here’s that 😁
-------------------------------------------------------------
I completely melt at the thought of Jake getting married to a South Asian bride and they make the wedding half Western and half South Asian.
I feel like he’d already just love the parts of your culture that you share with him. When you go to plan your wedding, he’d already be down to do a multiple-function, multi-day wedding and his sisters and parents would be so excited.
When you first started dating, he didn’t understand the things you whisper to him in your language. 
He makes it his mission to learn a little bit of your language without telling you. So, when you speak to your family or friends and it’s mostly them teasing you two, he knows but doesn’t mention it until later.
Like on the reception he just whispers “meri jaan” My life or something sweet in your ear as the Pandit (Priest) officiates it. 
All the little kids calling him the various names for “uncle” and you’re feeling so proud and holding them all close to you, he looks at you so softly, getting the kids to leave the stage as they scurry off after hugging both of you.
Jake on a horse, riding his way to your house with the Baraat, and being a natural because he’s no stranger to horse riding.
Him seeing you in the wedding lehenga for the first time and just forgetting how to speak.
You are not expecting to be as speechless as you are when you see him in his wedding outfit. And he would tease the hell out of you about it.
His dirty blond hair glistening in the harsh light coming from the camera man and seeing the rest of the squad in traditional desi clothes is the cherry on top.
He had his hands in the air as the dhol and drums (a traditional drumset that plays live at weddings) echo loudly, mimicking some of the dance moves your father or brother may have taught him.
He gets down on one knee as he approaches the stage where you stand, a ring in hand, maybe saying a few sentences in your language that has you crying.
“Main aur kisi ke bare main kaise soch sakta hoon jab meri duniya mere samne hai?” Basically how can I think about someone else when my whole world is in front of me?
Also, I headcanon sometimes that Jake loves to dance and his whole family really enjoys dancing at the wedding. It usually take a glass of wine or so to get him loose but the man can dance.
They drag him onto the stage and what people don’t know is that he has been practicing his moves.
If a lot of Punjabi families are there, then we know we got the booze flowing and as soon as the songs come on, he is going at it.
You are laughing and giggling in your chair as you watch him do bhangra or any other type of dance that he has up his sleeve.
You’re just like, “Babe…. where did you learn to dance like that? When did you find the time to learn this?” “Well, I am a Seresin, Darlin’.”
The wedding vows go like this: 
“The things I do for you my love, but today, I wanna dedicate this day, not to us; but to you. Because my heart has been so full of you that I simply cannot call it mine anymore. My soul has been bewitched and my mind has been taken over by every thought of you. I am a mere reflection- a shadow of you. There was a quote in this movie we watched on our third date: om shanti om (apologies for the pronunciation); you said it was your favorite movie growing up and you cried when shah rukh khan said; "Itni shiddat se maine tumhe paane ki koshish ki hai, ki har zarre ne mujhe tumse milane ki saazish ki hai. So today as our worlds gather around us to witness this beautiful moment, I want to say to you; mujhse shaadi karogi?”
To which you just laugh and say “We’re already married, dumbass” while tugging him up to kiss him and whisper, “A thousand times yes.”
The food, omg, okay. So, in your 5 year long relationship, you have never seen him enjoy pani-puri as much as you do at your own wedding. He happily ate them whenever you went out to eat at an Indian restaurant or made him eat Lamb Karahi (for my Pakistani girls out there), he ate it with a smile on his face, but usually, all he could feel was his mouth going numb at the spice.
But now, he is just gobbling them down. The shocking part? He’s eating them with the spicy water.
You’re shocked because he can handle more spice than you almost. And when you mention it he’s like “Baby you know I like it spicy”😉😉
Every daal or butter chicken or biryani that is brought to the table is just eaten, mostly by him.
When you taste the things yourself, the spice is there but he hasn’t picked up his glass
When you look at him, He just shrugs and says “I’m hungry.”
And you’re already reaching for water now and again.
Rooster and Javy are borderline crying.
And you keep giving them dahi (yogurt) to cut the spice because even you’re starting to
Even Phoenix can handle her spice, but Jake is surpassing that level and your mom is impressed to say the least.
Rooster watching hangman eat straight spicy biryani like 👁👄👁️
The Mehendi (a wedding function in which the bride, groom and guests’ hands and somethings feet are decorated with ethnic temporary tattoos” and Haldi rasam (a wedding function in which a yellow paste made from turmeric is applied to the bride’s and groom’s skin) has you thinking he looks absolutely adorable.
The yellow pastes make his skin glow and while everyone is admiring him all the young girls and aunties eyes are on him, he is just admiring you from the corner of the room as you get the haldi all over you.
You don't notice his eyes on you through the thin curtain until your mother whispers to you: “Everybody’s watching him, but he’s only been looking at you”
If there is haldi left after the ceremony you and Jake just attack Mav and the squad with it. 
And the aunties probably have something to say about how he’s just completely all over you, but you two don’t even care. You’re already too far gone into the bliss of your wedding preparations and traditions that nothing seems to affect your mood.
He’d probably really enjoy the fact that your wedding outfits reveal the midriff if you wear a lehenga. For each function that you wear one or even a sari, he probably really likes being able to feel your skin on his when he puts his arm around your waist.
Maybe if you decide to have a destination wedding in the house you rented, he shows up late at night at your door in a beige or black kurta that your mum made him wear, a few buttons undone from the top, hair a little messy.
He was up with your male family members playing antakshari (a card game often played at celebratory occasions).
If it’s in India, he takes you to a late-night drive to eat ice cream. You introduce him to paan and chai, two common late nigh street foods.
You threaten him that if he ever calls chai, chai tea, you will divorce him. 
When you get back it’s dark and late enough that no one else is awake, he quietly slips into your room as you both try to take in the last few days, barely having a moment to yourselves, as he just stays there and holds you until you drift off to sleep and when you do, he gives you a kiss on the forehead before slipping back into his room.
There’s a tradition where the brides name is written in the groom’s mehndi, and the groom’s name is written in the bride’s. When it comes to him trying to find his name in your hands, it takes him time, but he finds it hiding in the side of your pinky, because when you are nervous you hold onto each other’s pinky’s in a crowded room. It was a small thing you guys used to do before you had started dating.
If you've hidden his name as well, he finds it immediately but takes his name pretending like he didn’t see it just to play with your hands longer.
Yours is hidden in a kaleidoscope of stars and things he’s got on his palms and wrists, it’s in a moon shaped piece that has another thing written under it “mera chaand” My moon.
Phoenix shows up in the most stunning outfits and turns out she has dressed up every single one of the dagger boys.
It came as a surprise to you when she helps you with your jewelry, having known about many uncommon things about the certain things you were putting on.
She manages to take the boys away from you as you are getting ready for your main ceremony.
You both keep a Polaroid of the two of you getting ready, hair and makeup done, mehndi pristine, bangles on, jewelry pretty much all on and your outfits are on the hangers. Standing with arms around each other in tank tops and shorts and it’s the funniest sight. It's a memory you’ll cherish forever with your best friend.
Dude, can you just imagine Javy, Rooster, Mickey and Reuben all lifting the kids at the wedding in the air and pretending like they’re flying fighter jets.The kids are just like “I love Reuben uncle!” And “Jake maamaji is my favorite”.
After the wedding ceremony everyone’s making jokes about how y’all are probably going to get it on but you’re both so tired that you just fall asleep.
Before you do, Jake helps you take off your jewelry.
He counts the huge amount of bobby pins in your hair, the pile is bigger than your head. His eyes are wide by the time he is done taking out the last one. 
“Do you have anything else hiding in your skull somewhere? How did your head not fall?”
“Yeah, now you know why I’m so tired, I’m carrying twice my head’s normal weight.”
You let your clothes just fall to the floor but being the neat freak that he is, he goes to pick them up and put them on the hanger. He groans at the weight of it because it is just so heavy.
“Babe, how were you walking in this? Are you a bodybuilder?”
“Damn, Jake, I thought you navy officers were strong. Can’t even carry a dress??” He glares at you playfully.
He will not stop referring to you as Mrs. Seresin for ages.
You both lay down and just take in the past few days.
He says “Goodnight Mrs. Seresin”. You both just let yourselves fall asleep in like oversized shirts and underwear because you’re too tired to find anything else.
The next day you choose to have a little Western wedding party reception.
And he didn’t know what you were going to wear so when he sees you in a white wedding dress, he loses his mind. Bonus points if it’s Jake’s Mom’s dress.
Mrs. Seresin loves you, and seeing you make her son so happy, just fulfills her life mission.
You look angelic in it.
You remember when he had teased you about how when he gets married he’d take the Garter off with his teeth like some people do and I feel like even if he didn’t, he’d tickle up your leg a little as he took it off with his hands. 
He lets his hands roam around a little longer than needed, announcing that he can’t feel it until he disappears under your dress. He has is in his mouth as he reappears from under your dress, secretly giving it a sniff before tugging it into his pocket.
You get so flustered because your mother and his parents were there too.
Your father would be so mad, as most Asian dads would be in this situation.
Jake's mom might spontaneously combust; “Doesn’t this boy feel embarrassed?”
and the aunties will go feral. You don’t even care though because you’re way too in love with the man in front of you. But everyone had a good laugh over it, it was cute how in love you two are.
You cut cake and toss the bouquet.
Rooster just cuts through- like the diva he is and catches it.
Maybe giving it to your sister or a cousin of yours he’s been eyeing…
And everyone just tells stories from them about how you made naval aviators fall in love with the brown women in your family. Because it’s a common thing for a lot of matches to be made at desi weddings. They’re usually so big; friends and very extended family are invited from both sides and over the 3-7 days you all spend together, it’s not uncommon for some people to exchange numbers or so.
Like it all started there for everyone.
You and Jake take total credit for all the matches that were made.
Even phoenix, she saw your distant cousin that she got along with when your wedding ceremonies started and as she gets to know her; you stumble upon them on the rooftop on a late night, wrapped up in each other’s arms, a blanket around the two of them
Bonus points if you and Jake caught them there together and you all agree to just never mention it because you two weren’t supposed to be there either.
Imagine rooster giving the bouquet to your sister.
Like that man has been following her around the entire time the wedding ceremonies. It’s like a classic trope in a Bollywood movie.
One night, you’re looking for your earring which you’re convinced you sister took. And you walk into her room and he’s just there, minding his own business, chilling on his phone and he just jumps seeing you walk in, trying to explain.
Jake doesn’t even realize that rooster is involved with your sister until he sees them dancing. He just turns to you and is like “Are you seeing what I’m seeing?” And you’re just sitting there, smirking. *I know what you are dog meme*
According to Punjabi tradition, you have to wear a red set of bangles after the wedding as a sign of being a newlywed woman. 
According to tradition you need to keep it on until you have kids or like at least for a year. 
It’s not even a year after your marriage that Jake comes home to find your wrists empty of the beloved bangle set he’s so used to. Oh. Oh.
He knows what it means. The empty wrists have him staring, and he’s dying to ask whether you took it off because of discomfort or if there is bigger news behind it. 
After an hour of pondering, he gives up his patience and asks you. 
“Oh, I was waiting until later to tell you this but…” 
You drag him to the nearest seat, sitting him down as you sit opposite, burying your hands into your cardigan pocket and around the plastic stick that felt  a little too heavy now that you were face to face with him. This is what you had been trying for, it's good news. The warmth in his eyes encourages you to let it be, that this was the right time. 
You place the pregnancy test in front of him, he picks it up to inspect as his face lights up with joy that you had only seen the day you got married. In a flurry, he just picks you up and spins you around. You're screeching for him to put you down, but he refuses, burying his face into your stomach as you laugh.
When he does put you down, he makes you sit on the couch with him as he bends down to your stomach; “Hey there champ, you gonna give your ma trouble for the next few months huh?”

Tu maan meri jaan; a string of headcanons
Tumblr media
A/n; I wanna thank @birdy-bat-writes for this amazing string of head canons, you are truly an inspiration to us all. This little thing is dedicated to all my brown girls and desi’s who long for the representation on any platform. I want you to know that just because there is no opportunity available, doesn’t mean you can’t make an opportunity for yourself. I hope you like this as much as I do <333
Jake seresin x desi!reader (feat. The dagger squad + Maverick)
Tumblr media
I completely melt at the thought of Jake getting married to a South Asian bride and they make the wedding half Western and half South Asian.
Like on the reception he just whispers “meri jaan” My life or something in your ear as the Pandit officiates it.
All the little kids calling him the versions names for “uncle” and you feeling so proud and holding them all close to you, he looks at you so softly, getting the kids to leave the stage as they scurry off after hugging both of you.
Jake on a horse, riding his way to your house with the Baraat.
When you first started dating, he didn’t understand the things you whispered to him in your language.
Him seeing you in the wedding lehenga for the first time and just forgetting how to speak
He makes it his mission to learn a little bit of your language without telling you. So when you speak to your family or friends and it’s mostly them teasing you two, he knows but doesn’t mention it until later.
You are not expecting to be as speechless as you are when you see him in his wedding outfit. He doesnt stop teasing the hell out of you about it the entire night.
Dirty blond hair glistening in the harsh light coming from the camera man and seeing the rest of the squad in traditional clothes is the cherry on top.
He had his hands in the air as the dhol and drums echo loudly, mimicking some of the moves your father or brother may have taught him.
And then at the reception, you decide to change into a white dress. But he doesn’t know. So when he sees you he’s breathless all over again.
He gets down on one knee as he approaches the stage where you stand, a ring in hand, maybe saying a few sentences in your language that has you crying
“Main aur kisi ke bare main kaise soch sakta hoon jab meri duniya mere samne hai?”How can I think about someone else when my whole world is in front of me?
Maybe he sings a song or two; a song from your favorite bollywood movie, something he spent months practicing and getting the emotions right so he doesnt end up crying halfway. The lyrics are dedicated to you, Ofcourse. And as he brings you onto the dance floor you notice the mic in his hand shaking. But you slowly wrap your hands around his and sing the song with him as it closes out.
It’s no secret that Jake loves to dance and his whole family really enjoys dancing at the wedding.
They drag him onto the stage and what people don’t know is that he has been practicing his moves.
If a lot of Punjabi families are there, then we know we got the booze flowing and as soon as the songs come on he is going at it.
You are laughing and giggling in your chair as you watch him do bhangra or any other type of dance that he has up his sleeve.
You’re just like “….where did you learn to dance like that?”
“When did you find the time to learn this?” “well, i am a Seresin, darlin’”
The wedding vows go like this:
“The things I do for you my love, but today, I wanna dedicate this day, not to us; but to you. Because my heart has been so full of you that I simply cannot call it mine anymore. My soul has been bewitched and my mind has been taken over by every thought of you. I am a mere reflection- a shadow of you. There was a quote in this movie we watched on our third date: om shanti om (apologies for the pronunciation); you said it was your favorite movie growing up and you cried when shah rukh khan said; "Itni shiddat se maine tumhe paane ki koshish ki hai, ki har zarre ne mujhe tumse milane ki saazish ki hai.” (I have tried so hard to get you, that the entire universe has brought you to me.) So today as our families gather around us to witness this beautiful moment, I want to say to you; mujhse shaadi karogi?” (Will you marry me)
To which you just laugh and say “we’re already married dumbass” while tugging him up to kiss him and whisper a thousand yes’.
The Mehendi and Haldi rasam has you thinking he looks absolutely adorable
The yellow pastes make his skin glow and while everyone is admiring him all the young girls and aunties eyes are on him, he is just admiring you from the corner of the room as you get the haldi all over you.
You don't notice his eyes on you through the thin curtain until your mother whispers to you: “Everybody’s watching him but he’s only been looking at you”
He loves the way your hair shines in the light.
If there is haldi left after the ceremony you and Jake just attack Mav and the squad with it.
The aunties probably have something to say about how he’s just completely all over you, but you two don’t even care. You’re already too far gone into the bliss of your wedding preparations and traditions that nothing seems to affect your mood.
He’d probably really enjoy the fact that your wedding outfits reveal the midriff if you wear a lehenga. For each function that you wear one or even a sari, he probably really likes being able to feel your skin on his when he puts his arm around your waist.
Maybe if you decide to have a destination wedding in the house you rented, he shows up late at night at your door in a beige or black kurta that your mum made him wear, a few buttons undone from the top, hair a little messy
He was up with your male family members playing antakshari.
If it’s in India, he takes you to a late night drive to eat ice cream.
You introduce him to paan and chai.
You threaten him that if he ever calls chai, chai tea, you will divorce him. He swore he would never mispronounce a single thing again.
When you get back it’s dark and late enough that no one else is awake, he quietly slips into your room as you both try to take in the last few days, barely having a moment to yourselves, as he just stays there and holds you until you drift off to sleep and when you do, he gives you a kiss on the forehead before slipping back into his room.
Then when it comes to him trying to find his name in your hands, it takes him time but he finds it hiding in the side of your pinky, because when you are nervous you hold onto each other’s pinky’s in a crowded room. It was a small thing you guys used to do before you had started dating.
If you've hidden his call sign as well, he finds it immediately but takes his name pretending like he didn’t see it just to play with your hands longer.
Yours is hidden in a kaleidoscope of stars and things he’s got on his palms and wrists, it’s in a moon shaped piece that has another thing written under it “mera chaand”
Phoenix shows up in the most stunning outfits and turns out she has dressed up every single one of the dagger boys.
It came as a surprise to you when she helped you with your jewelry, having known about many uncommon things about the certain things you were putting on.
She manages to take the boys away from you as you are getting ready for your main ceremony.
You both keep a Polaroid of the two of you getting ready, hair and makeup done, mehendi pristine, bangles on, jewelry pretty much all on and your outfits are on the hangers. Standing with arms around each other in tank tops and shorts and it’s the funniest sight. It's a memory you’ll cherish forever with your best friend.
Dude can you just imagine Javy, Rooster, Mickey and Reuben all lifting the kids at the wedding in the air and pretending like they’re flying fighter jets.The kids are just like “I love Reuben uncle!” And “Jake maamaji is my favorite”.
Phoenix teaches the girls how to fight, defend themselves and kick the boys in the balls.
They manage to experiment their kicks on the squad and even though the girls don’t hurt them enough, they pretend to topple over in faux pain until Phoenix hits Rooster in the balls and he actually does double over in pain as everyone around him just laughs it off. He tries to smile through the pain for the sake of the kids but Phoenix knows that she hurt him where it hurts. All the kids think it’s hilarious because they think it’s fake and Rooster is just trying to smile through the pain.
After the wedding ceremony everyone’s making jokes about how y’all are probably going to get it on but you’re both so tired that you just fall asleep.
Not to mention the fact that he will help you take off your jewelry.
He counts the huge amount of bobby pins in your hair, the pile is bigger than your head.
His eyes are wide by the time he is done taking out the last one.
“Do you have anything else hiding in your skull somewhere? How did your head not fall?”
“Yeah now you wonder why I’m so tired, I’m carrying twice my heads normal weight”
He’s just shocked but damn he is proud of you and probably does a hands down thing after you pile up your outfit, heels and everything and make him pick it up.
He groans at the weight of it because it is just so heavy.
“Babe, how were you walking in this? Are you goddamn bodybuilder?”
“Damn, Jake, I thought you navy officers were strong. Cant even carry a dress??” Him glaring at you playfully.
“I am Mrs. Seresin now, aren’t I? So that automatically makes me strong, like your mom.”
Him melting at that…
He will not stop referring to you as Mrs. Seresin for ages.
You both lay down and just take in the past few days.
He says “goodnight Mrs seresin”. You both just let yourselves fall asleep in like oversized shirts and underwear because you’re too tired to find anything else. Wedding clothes left on the floor.
Maybe you end up getting shared last names, and you correct him that “it's Seresin-L/n”
The next day you choose to have that little western wedding party reception.
And he didn’t know what you were going to wear so when he sees you in a white wedding dress he loses his mind.
Maybe it's Vivienne Westwood (rest in peace queen), bonus points if it’s his moms dress.
Mrs Sersin loves you, and seeing you make her son so happy, just fulfills her life mission.
You look angelic in it
and then midway you might change into a more traditional one
You remember when he had teased you about how when he gets married he’d take the Garter off with his teeth like some people do and I feel like even if he didn’t, he’d tickle up your leg a little as he took it off with his hands.
He lets his hands roam around a little longer than needed, definitely announcing that he can’t feel it until he disappears under your dress. He has is in his mouth as he reappears from under your dress, secretly giving it a sniff before tugging it into his pocket.
You get so flustered because your mother and his parents were there too.
Your father would be so mad, as most asian dads would be in this situation.
Jake's mom might spontaneously combust; “Doesn’t this boy feel embarrassed?”
and the aunties will go feral. You don’t even care though because you’re way too in love with the man in front of you.
You cut cake and toss the bouquet
Rooster just cuts through- like the diva he is and catches it.
Maybe giving it to your sister that he’s been eyeing…
And everyone just tells stories from them about how you made naval aviators fall in love with the brown women in your family.
Like it all started there for everyone.
You and Jake take total credit for all the matches that were made.
Even phoenix, she saw your distant cousin that she got along with when your wedding ceremonies started and as she gets to know her; you stumble upon them on the rooftop on a late night, wrapped up in each others arms, a blanket around the two of them
Bonus points if you and Jake caught them there together and you all agree to just never mention it because you two weren’t supposed to be there either.
You didn’t even know the girl swinged that way but seeing Phoenix follow her around like a puppy dog has you feeling good about your best friend.
The food, omg, okay. So in your 5 year long relationship, you have never seen him enjoy pani puri as much as you do at your own wedding. He happily ate them whenever you went out to eat at an indian restaurant or made him eat Lamb Karahi (for my pakistani girls out there), he ate it with a smile on his face, yet all he can feel is his mouth gong numb at the spices.
But now, he is just gobbling them down. The shocking part? He’s eating them with the spicy water
You’re shocked because he can handle more spice than you, somehow.
He manages to not throw up later that night, because he usually used to get an upset stomach during your last trip to South Asia.
When you mention it he’s like “baby you know I like it spicy”
Every daal or butter chicken or biryani that is brought to the table doesn't last for more than 5 minutes on the table, mostly eaten by him.
When you taste the things yourself, the spice is there but he hasn’t picked up his glass of water to take a single sip.
When you look at him, He just shrugs and says “I’m hungry” while you’re already reaching for water now and again
Rooster and Javy are borderline crying, and you keep giving them dahi.
The moans Jake is letting out just be eating the daal and roti has you choking on your food.
Even Phoenix can handle her spice but Jake is surpassing that level and your mom is impressed to say the least.
Rooster’s in awe, watching hangman eat straight spicy biryani
Oh Rooster,
Imagine Rooster giving the bouquet to your sister though, like that man has been following her around the entire the wedding ceremonies, it makes you think of the classic tropes in Bollywood movies.
Then one night, you’re looking for your earring which you’re convinced you sister took, you walk into her room and he’s just there, minding his own business, chilling on his phone and he just jumps seeing you walk in trying to explain that they haven't done anything besides hang out while leaving room for jesus. Its the funniest sight as your sister suppresses her giggles.
He is doing this one performance with her, where she throws the flower at his ass as part of the act.
Even Jake doesn’t realize that Rooster is involved with your sister until he sees her slingshot the flower and wink at Rooster, which has him blushing- hard.
You’re grinning from ear to ear because you know and Jake just turns to you and is like “are you seeing what I’m seeing?” And you’re just sitting there, smirking.
Jake is a softie and if you’re Punjabi, you have to wear a red set of bangles after the wedding as a sign of being a newlywed woman.
According to tradition you need to keep it on until you have kids or like at least for a year.
It’s not even a year after your marriage that jake comes home to find your wrists empty of the beloved bangle set he’s so used to. Oh.
He knows what it means, your mother had filled him in on this Rasam as well when he was told he wasn't allowed to see you until the day of your wedding.
The empty wrists has him staring, and he’s dying to ask whether you took it off because of discomfort or that there is bigger news behind it.
After an hour of pondering he gives up his patience and asks you.
“Jaan? Where’s the Chura?” “Oh, I was waiting until later to tell you this but…”
You drag him to the nearest seat, sitting him down as you sit opposite, burying your hands into your cardigan pocket and around the plastic stick that felt a little too heavy now that you were face to face with him.
This is what you had been trying for, it's good news. The warmth in his eyes encourages you to let it be, that this was the right time.
you place the pregnancy test in front of him, he picks it up to inspect as his face lights up with joy that you had only seen the day you got married. In a flurry, he just picks you up and spins you around. You're screeching for him to put you down but he refuses, burying his face into your stomach as you laugh.
When he does put you down, he makes you sit on the couch with him as he bends down to your stomach; “Hey there champ, you gonna give your ma trouble for the next few months huh? ”
Your pregnancy was hectic to say the least. A few weeks after you announced it, Jake was deployed, thankfully he got home just in time to help you through the last five months of it.
Your cravings consisted of kheer and achar mixtures and a bunch of other weird foods that you forced him to make.
As tradition asks, he took you to your parents’ house as you approached the end of your pregnancy. You ate every single dish your mum presented you with.
The delivery was tough as most are, he was there to support you through it.
You're pretty sure you cussed him out in your mother tongue multiple times.
Just like that your beautiful daughter was born.
She is absolutely beautiful and all Jake wants to do is protect the two of you from the world, his two best girls.
A few months into parenting has the two of you exhausted to say the least. Your parents come over all the time, you siblings try and teach the infant words that you’re pretty sure she cannot pronounce at this age.
But before she turns a year old, you mimic the sounds of your mother to try and teach her to say “Maa”
To which Jake tries to teach her to say “papa/baba”, that has your heart melting when you stumble upon the two of them eating and him repeating “baba” to her.

★ Sukhbir reveals how he, Salman Khan came up with 'Billi Billi Akh'!
Mar 2, 2023
Punjabi singer Sukhbir, who is known as the Prince of Bhangra and boast of chartbusters like 'Ishq Tera Tadpave', 'Balle Balle', is back with another track 'Billi Billi Akh' and this time, it's for a Salman Khan film - 'Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan'. The song, video of which is set to release on Thursday, has an interesting story. The singer revealed that Salman came up with the idea for a wedding song and shared the same with him while the two were in Abu Dhabi.
'Billi Billi Akh' is an upbeat, peppy song, composed by Vicky Sandhu who's also written Punjabi lyrics, with the perfect blend of modern flair and Punjabi beats, features Sukhbir himself along with the entire cast of the movie, Salman Khan, Pooja Hegde, Shehnaaz Gill and Palak Tiwari. Talking about how the song came into being, Sukhbir said, "I met Salman Khan in Abu Dhabi where he had requested a wedding/celebration song for his upcoming movie and that's when I sent him a couple of options. He loved all of them but especially fell in love with 'Billi Billi Akh' which was a Punjabi song and lyrics and that's how we started working on this Hindi version which was written by lyricist Kumaar and the music has been produced by DJ Dips and Supernova."
Sukhbir has been in the industry for over two decades now and commands a colossal fan following, his 'Ishq Tera Tadpave' song still rules the dance floors during wedding celebrations. Talking about his experience during the shoot with Salman Khan, the singer added, "My experience has been nothing short of simply amazing. I did not expect Salman Khan to be so hands-on when it came to every detail, he would call me to discuss lyrics and the musical bits, ask me to edit certain parts so that they make sense to the visuals of the song, and the best part was shooting of the video which was done in Mumbai". "He made sure everyone was looked after and I particularly enjoyed meal times with him as it gave us an opportunity to have one on one sessions to discuss the movie amidst many jokes", he added
