"Dola Re Dola" is a stunning production dance number from the big budget, award winning, Bollywood extravaganza, "Devdas" directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and starring Shahrukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai, and Madhuri Dixit in the leading roles.
This colossal dance number has inspired a number of amateur and professional interpretations, and it's easy to see why! The choreography, the costumes, the set, the cinematography, editing and music are all so outstanding, this must be the best dance sequence ever filmed! The song itself is so good, you could listen to it over and over again all day, and the rhythm is so intoxicating it makes you want to dance. There are a lot of intricate dance moves and hand gestures that would take a huge effort to learn, so it's very impressive to see anyone attempt it. Watching this film clip and the dancers who have been inspired by it has been an uplifting experience.

Kiradance was inspired to learn the entire choreography of Dola Re Dola, and practiced until she was able to complete the number as the DVD played on her TV. Her dancing is excellent, and her adorable costume perfectly matches the furniture in her living room. Camera quality and placement is also excellent and Kiradance makes excellent use of her limited floor space and the rectangular viewing area defined by the camera frame. Her video made quite a splash on Youtube and has been viewed over 200,000 times!
Thanks Kiradance, keep up the good work!

This is a great dance mashup that mixes up Dola Re Dola with the Tom Cruise underwear dancing in your living room approach. Jor87 says he spent 2 weeks learning the dance, but is not satisfied with the results. I think he's being too hard on himself. He's got some well articulated dance moves, a great "bermuda shorts" motiff, costume, nice living room set with an achway flanked by 2 giant houseplants. Video and sound quality are pretty shakey, but watchable.
Thanks jor87, keep up the good work!
Mina produced this colorful and lively version of Dola Re Dola. This video has excellent production values featuring good video and sound, a breezy and charming Victorian looking themed bedroom setting, along with a matching costume. The dancing is very expressive and athletic, while the choreography makes good use of the available floor space in the room. I got tired just watching it!
Thanks DeathStarNightmare!
