Former Indian cricketers Irfan Pathan and Suresh Raina were seen showing off their dance moves on the recent chart-bursting song ‘Naatu Naatu’ from RRR. The pair are currently playing in LLC Masters in Doha, Qatar and were captured on the dance floor in a post shared by Pathan on his Instagram account.


The ‘Naatu Naatu’ song saw a massive revival after it won the Oscar for best original song. This was also the first Oscar won by an Indian film in this category. This hit was composed by MM Keeravaani and written by Chandrabose. ‘Naatu Naatu’ also won accolades at Golden Globes and Critics Choice Awards this year.


The duo tried to replicate the fast-paced steps and were seen having a great time together. In the video, on Instagram, Pathan and Raina’s former teammate Mohammad Kaif was also captured as the crowd around was seen cheering them. The clip was captioned, “Shaking a leg literally #friends #dance.”

Taking about the LLC Masters, Irfan Pathan and Suresh Raina are representing the India Maharajas, who have struggled so far in the tournament. The Gautam Gambhir-led side has just won one game so far out of the four. The Maharajas suffered a nine-run loss in their opening game against the Asia Lions. 


Then the second fixture was another loss as the World Giant scrapped through to register a two-wicket win. Finally, the Maharajas managed to pull off a resounding 10-wicket win in the third game, thanks to a brilliant partnership between Gambhir and Robin Utthapa. But India Maharajas got back to losing way in the next game and were handed a three-wicket loss by the Giants.
