In October this year, Garcetti left everyone surprised when he performed at the Diwali celebrations held at the Delhi embassy. The US Ambassador danced to the popular Bollywood song 'tauba tauba' from a movie named Bad Newz starring Vicky Kaushal and Tripti Dimri.

Dressed in traditional Indian attire, Garcetti danced his heart out as he performed bhangra to the song during the celebrations.

Garcetti had first visited India as a teenager and fell in love with the country's hospitality, warmth, and culture. His life came a full circle when he was appointed the US Ambassador to India for which he had to come back to New Delhi.

Earlier this year, he completed one year of service in India in May. On the occasion, he shared a "year review" where he shared about the "incredible" one year he spent in India and how the "the warmth of the people and our shared dreams that truly stole my heart". 

In his year review, he spoke about enjoying 'kadak chai', 'chhole', and using UPI payments, while taking key bilateral decisions and working on strengthening the bonds between the two nations.
