Other Instagram users also chimed in with their thoughts. One remarked, “Lovely to see them having so much fun and as a result entertaining fellow passengers. Bless them abundantly and may their vibe attract more and more people to be authentic and free to express themselves through art.”
Another user imagined a cinematic scenario where a character initially irritated by the song ends up joining in by the end, highlighting the infectious joy of the moment. A third user humorously noted the video’s length, expressing enjoyment of its prolonged reel.
Reflecting on the commuters’ spirited performance amidst the challenges of daily life in Mumbai, a fourth user observed, “Being so jovial after a day’s long of work at the office and commuting in a city with poor infrastructure and extreme weather conditions. Happiness is truly a choice that you make irrespective of the external circumstances!”
“Yeh Dil Deewana,” a timeless favorite from the 1997 film Pardes featuring Shah Rukh Khan, continues to resonate with audiences. With vocals by Sonu Nigam, Hema Sardesai, and Shankar Mahadevan, and lyrics penned by Anand Bakshi, the song remains a cherished melody from Bollywood’s repertoire.
