Canadian-Indian rapper/producer Tesher and award-winning singer/songwriter Jason Derulo play restaurant workers vying for the attention of a beautiful customer in the vibrant official video for their reimagination of Tesher’s global hit, “Jalebi Baby.” Director Gil Green (Drake, J Balvin, Nicki Minaj) captures the song’s Bollywood Hollywood vibe as Tesher and Derulo take turns fantasizing about performing for their Jalebi Baby. Choreographed by both Derulo’s long-time choreographer, Jeremy Kenyel, and Tesher’s choreographer/manager, Divya Jethwani, the video features multiple dance scenes – one of them marking the first time in history that a major American artist has performed a Bhangra routine on screen. The video showcases colorful costumes sourced from South Asian designers including KYNAH and holiCHIC and was filmed at the elegant Taglyan Cultural Center in Hollywood. The jalebis (South Asian desserts) seen in the video were prepared on site. Watchthe iconic video here.
