Chandigarh:
Farooq Abdullah, an enthusiastic former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister, was seen shaking a leg with Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh at a wedding ceremony in Chandigarh over the weekend in a video that has been widely shared on the social media.
Taking a break from his frequent run-ins with the central government, Abdullah was attending the wedding of Seharinder Kaur, the daughter of Amarinder Singh’s son, Raninder Singh.
The two veteran politicians seem to have fun dancing to covers of ‘Aaj Kal Tere Mere Pyar Ke Charche’ and ‘Gulabi Aankhen Jo Teri Dekhi’, both originally sung by Mohammed Rafi in the late 1960s and ’70s.

Captain Singh’s granddaughter married Aditya Narang, the son of Delhi businessman Devin Narang, in a ceremony in Chandigarh on Sunday.
The Chief Minister of Punjab also sang a ‘Suhag’ in Punjabi at the celebration at his farm in Siswan, as he sat alongside the newly married couple and their wife Praneet Kaur.
Suhag is a genre of folk songs that are sung as part of wedding rituals in Punjab.
