New Delhi: Nearly a year since the coronavirus pandemic crisis people are now seeing a ray of hope as they get their COVID-19 injections. Several countries have rolled out vaccination drive and people are flooding the social media with their stories.
One prominent story is of a Canadian Sikh man, a dance instructor, who posted a video of himself doing 'bhangra' on a frozen lake in Canada, much to the delight of the internet.
Pandher shared the video with an inspiring message saying: "Yesterday evening I received my Covid-19 vaccine. Then I went to a frozen lake to dance Bhangra on it for joy, hope and positivity, which I’m forwarding across Canada and beyond for everyone’s health and wellbeing.”

But mostly, users thanked for sharing joy with the world.
Thanks for sharing your joy with the world. The virality of your video shows how much your joy is needed. Wishing you and our Canadian neighbors the best! Hope to see your dance on a @zumba video soon.
