Gajgamini, an elephant’s walk! Aditi Rao Hydari nailed it in Heeramandi…..

Aditi Rao’s seductive walk in #Heeramandi

The walk that we call a “Gajgamini” actually means the elephant’s walk.
Yes you heard it right an “Elephant’s” walk.

From the Kamasutra and various Vedic literature, a woman’s slow and thumping walk moving her hips slightly left and right has been compared to an elephant’s walk.
Contrary to the duck’s walk, the elephant’s walk is considered alluring and seductive.

From the historic times, a woman who had big hips were considered sexy, attractive as well as a lucky sign for marriage. But gradually with the interference of West culture, the significance of having volumised hips began to be seen as fat and zero figure or smaller waist were considered a good shape.

The scene from the song “Hatto Jao” from the Netflix series “Heeramandi” starring Aditi Rao aka Bibbo Jaan is gaining popularity for her Gajgamini steps and it is flooding the social media with good reviews.

Let us know in the comment section how did you find the scene and especially Bibbo Jaan’s walk.
