How exactly is this culture appreciation? This is them doing a performance on Bollywood music.. Leave it at that. There's no such thing as culture appreciation or misappropriation.
@@andypereira362 This is culture appreciation because they're not representing the culture as their own, but instead are introducing Bollywood art on a world stage.

I am Indian, and I love it when people appreciate my culture. This was very adorable to watch. Not folk music, however, this is mainstream Bollywood music.
You would be surprised how many people love and enjoy Indian music, traditional or mainstream all around the world!! Because it is unique and beautiful! Greetings from Germany 💖❤️💕🌹🌺
I think that it's a confusing thing about figure skating (even tho I'm not sure). The ISU, the organization that rules this sport, usually refers as "folk" to what is often known as "world music" that encapsulates folk but also everything that is more or less typical of one place. That season they had to choose for the original dance music that was folk or country, so they chose indian music and that's why they were labeled as indian folk even when it's just mainstream indian music
I remember watching this for the first time during the actual Olympics and it has lived rent free in my head ever since. I always come back for the music, it’s so unique and unlike any western music I’ve ever heard. The skating is amazing too, they’re both so skilled.
All three songs belongs/dedicated to Aishwarya Rai. 1st song "Kajra re Kajra re Tere Kaale-kaale naina". 2nd song "Silsila ye chahat ka" from movie Devdas. 3rd song "Dola re" from movie Devdas.
i've never seen ice skating before ever.. their legs and arms in sync and the smooth like butter movements were epic !! and on top of that, bollywood songs and indian dressup just made it perfect.
Bro this couple have india dreses and they prasent indian calture in olampic. You must proud on them ❤...!love and lots of respect from india ❤....! 🙏🙏🙏
I can't say for sure but I know in past interviews she has said she does her own makeup for competitions...it's her time to center her mind before getting on the ice. She said it took her a while to get comfortable doing it but after awhile she came to really love it.
Being Indian, all the steps from 2:55 gives me goosebumps. They performed so brilliantly, doesn't feel they belong from different culture. Ice Skating even more enhances the beauty of the dance.
I am an Indian and settled in the US for decades now, got goosebumps watching this. Never watched anything performed so well. They make it look so effortless but it isn’t. Kudos to you guys!
Being Indian feel so proud Where some people choose a classic English song,or ballad....they choose Indian song with Indian choreography which is already a tough job to do on ice.....they are really talented 🙏🙏
Hey, it's not really related but I just wanted to say that as a kid I loved Bollywood movies and traditional Indian dresses/songs, so I kinda grew up with it and I hope every Indian knows how much their culture is appreciated and loved!
@@mishthikadwal38 I didn't said if Indians do ballet it's bad I just felt felt proud as they did Bollywood,,I myself m multicultural fan from British culture,to chinese to all different culture in world
Different singers and related to aish.. So all credit does not go to aish only... Please give some credit to the singer.. Shreya ghosal mostly i think... 😊😊
This fusion was brilliant ! This kind of fusion shows the love and respect for other culture(s), though it's not folk music of india it's Bollywood music, I thank to Olympics to show this beautiful performance !
@Ashish yadav it was cultural appreciation. Canada is a meltingpot. Meryl and Charlie represented that cultural diversity as there is a substantial group of Vancouver citizens of Indian descent. Their cultural background and it's origins are celebrated by two athletes of european descent. That is not appropriation(which is a real thing); it's appreciation.
@@GullibleTarget as an Indian, I agree with roddo here. That was cultural appreciation at its purest. All the respect was paid to the culture, while making sure that the athletes enjoyed performing too. There's no better way to embrace Indian culture than that. And the term appropriation does exist, and us valid, but it is often taken off context and misunderstood.
This was beautiful. Their performance was absolutely breathtaking. I'm glad to see that bollywood music is finally getting some acknowledgement and appreciation.
I'm Indian and came here honestly to see if there were any comments saying "CuLtUrAl aPprOpRiAtiOn" and instead got amazed with how good this performance was.

@@ishanarpan704 Not everything they do is culture appropriation... U do realize that what she was doing was some complex stuff? Like both dancing and skating simultaneously
As an Indian, I can assure you that those songs are notably the masterpieces of Bollywood filmed on one and only Aishwarya Rai... You guys nailed it... Their agility was mind blowing just mind blowing 👏👏👏
We don't know how much hard work and practice ....hrs. of sacrifices was needed for this amazing masterpiece....this is so beautiful ... awesome performance ❤️❤️
People who say this is cultural appropriation are ignorant. They are honoring, respecting, and bringing awareness to other cultures in a tasteful way! The people I used to work with would turn their noses up at anything that wasn’t within their white standards which infuriated me. This could be a small stepping stone for acceptance.
I think people in west are always ready to embrace things that they like irrespective of where it comes from, as far as those handful of people turning up their noses are concerned it happens around the globe, people have a sense of pride and feeling of being superior to others which is just normal. Its the corporates that tend to force their stuff to other cultures.
I love this performance - I never thought I'd see my indian culture showcased in an international forum such as this. Meryl's hand and finger movements - so detailed and their outfits - exquisite! Beautiful choreography ❣
It doesn't feel like a colonizer putting on bindi and a costume? The indian community has such a strange relationship with their colonizer... But do as you will...
Really enjoyed this performance! With a little digging, I found that they actually took Indian dance lesson just for this routine and that the costumes were pieced together from real Indian clothing. Talk about going all out for authenticity!
I absolutely love how they portrayed this dance it was just beautiful and this is respecting the culture not just eating butter chicken and calling it a day actually trying trying the culture music and dance which is what they portrayed so beautifully here it was just mesmerising and doing this on ice was just something wonderful
wow! just watched this! Being an Indian, I feel this dancing duo deserves heartfelt appreciation from all fellow Indians. Salute Meryl Davis and Charlie White!
The title is so apt... they honoured the Bollywood music. Nothing in my life have I watched such a beautiful mix of music and sport. I have become a huge fan of them. Thanks for presenting this to the world. Love from INDIA.
Nine years later and I still say this should have been the highest scoring original dance. Tessa and Scott deserved the overall win but this was the best OD by far.
scoutz0rs i say no, although it’s biased cuz I’m Canadian but T and S deserved that cuz they have a lot more chemistry than Davis and White. They dance better together and got gold in their own country.

Awesome🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
They literally represented India and the dance was really perfect😍
perfect comment.
@@photon7404 thanks
Not india only Bollywood
The performance looks more like a tribute to Aishwarya Rai than Bollywood as a whole
But anyway, it's a great performance. Kudos to their hard-work.
This is true that a person cannot be perfect but i can say that this performance is super perfect.
As an Indian, I can assure you that those songs are notably the masterpieces of Bollywood filmed on one and only Aishwarya Rai...
You guys nailed it... Their agility was mind blowing just mind blowing 👏👏👏
Don't forget Madhuri
@@vernewright6311 my bad, Madhuri is dhak dhak girl of India. Nobody can forget her
@@vernewright6311 aishwarya is common in all these songs.
I’ve wanted to watch some Bollywood films no idea where to start can you recommend?

As an Indian, I have to say. Its perfect, clean, the moves are very apt as our culture, really impressed!
ТАНЕЦ СУПЕРРРР. БРАВОО РЕБЯТА. I LOVE INDIA 💖👍. ПРИВЕТ ОТ КАЗАХСТАНА 🤗
A routine in which the arms are finally as busy as the legs. :)
OMG that is so true
Exactly..! 🙄😂😁
Meryl & Charlie were one of the most original dance pair ever...very, very cool!!!
Y'all can't imagine how proud I'm literally feeling rn as if they're my friends or something
Loved it... people embracing each other's culture... globalization is real!!
This is not globalization. But its beautiful.
Globalization is meant in economic aspects.
This is respect each others.
@@pratiklokhande7735 ahh no...
Globalization is the idea of one village, intertwined culture and economy.
@@pratiklokhande7735 😂😂😂😂😂😂🤦

Those twizzles were INSANE! I'm waiting for the day that this circular step becomes a compulsory pattern. It's masterful!
twizzles are already compulsory
I know twizzles are. I meant that at 2:00, this circular step should become a compulsory pattern.

@@Neophyte_me Thnx so mch, but u did not follow me anyways 😑
a perfect display of cultural graceful athleticism, pure joy to watch
They are like flying 😮
If they would have performed in India... The crowd reaction would be something else.
there no stadium filled with ice bro
@@Aditoise even if there was , noone would be interested here
@@livingtribunal2347 nah if its girl people will surely go ...yeah its kinda emmbarasing
crowed would have been screaming from the start
Throughout the performance people would be singing along with music dancing and whistling throught the performance
Both the artists here really need a thunderous applause for this wonderful and scintillating performance . Their style and grace were superb. 👍💕
OMG beautiful beautiful beautiful!!! The movements, the graceful depiction of hand postures, and just how beautiful they both look in Indian clothes!
People who say this is cultural appropriation are ignorant. They are honoring, respecting, and bringing awareness to other cultures in a tasteful way! The people I used to work with would turn their noses up at anything that wasn’t within their white standards which infuriated me. This could be a small stepping stone for acceptance.
Hmmm... Leave it to a couple of white Americans to show the world of cultural awareness.
I think people in west are always ready to embrace things that they like irrespective of where it comes from, as far as those handful of people turning up their noses are concerned it happens around the globe, people have a sense of pride and feeling of being superior to others which is just normal. Its the corporates that tend to force their stuff to other cultures.
I love this performance - I never thought I'd see my indian culture showcased in an international forum such as this. Meryl's hand and finger movements - so detailed and their outfits - exquisite! Beautiful choreography ❣
It doesn't feel like a colonizer putting on bindi and a costume? The indian community has such a strange relationship with their colonizer... But do as you will...
A great display of Indian culture, by foreigners, who are Indians by heart..😅
I m not an Indian but I got goosebumps watching this
I could hardly breathe during the entire performance. so beautiful. very well done.
mee too dude..indians got great music industry
@@fathimanihank
Yes!! Indian Music can't be compared with any other..
HEY GRACE
And I got this video in my recommendations after 5years ❤❤
Both have earned tonnes of respect from India. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Really enjoyed this performance! With a little digging, I found that they actually took Indian dance lesson just for this routine and that the costumes were pieced together from real Indian clothing. Talk about going all out for authenticity!
Господи как же это красиво. Легко, воздушно. На одном дыхании смотришь. Передали всю тайну Индийского танца. Браво
I absolutely love how they portrayed this dance it was just beautiful and this is respecting the culture not just eating butter chicken and calling it a day actually trying trying the culture music and dance which is what they portrayed so beautifully here it was just mesmerising and doing this on ice was just something wonderful
wow! just watched this! Being an Indian, I feel this dancing duo deserves heartfelt appreciation from all fellow Indians. Salute Meryl Davis and Charlie White!
She's looking absolutely gorgeous

I’m Indian and this is so beautifully done. Absolutely delightful adaption.
The title is so apt... they honoured the Bollywood music. Nothing in my life have I watched such a beautiful mix of music and sport. I have become a huge fan of them. Thanks for presenting this to the world. Love from INDIA.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the cameramen for his work😍
Yeah he too did an amazing job but these performers were on a whole different level.
@@UmeshSagarOfficial yes
Nhi
Are nahi
There are many cameras here ai operated
So its nothing
Nine years later and I still say this should have been the highest scoring original dance. Tessa and Scott deserved the overall win but this was the best OD by far.
scoutz0rs i say no, although it’s biased cuz I’m Canadian but T and S deserved that cuz they have a lot more chemistry than Davis and White. They dance better together and got gold in their own country.
Don't lie
What did they win?
It was the highest OD.
@@myahobbswunsche9806 chemistry or dance moves?
