Mumbai-based dance troupe 'The Kings' who performed at the American dance reality show 'World of Dance' on February 26 impressed celebrity judge Jennifer Lopez so much that she picked up her shoe and threw it at them as a mark of respect and appreciation. Fellow judges Ne-Yo and Derek Hough also threw their shoes at the troupe who are representing India in the third season of the reality show. The troupe kick-started the show with a jaw-dropping hip-hop performance on 'Dhakka Laga Bukka' from 2004 Bollywood film titled 'Yuva'. Music director A.R. Rahman who has composed the music and sung Dhakka Laga Bukka for Yuva was amazed by The Kings. He took to Twitter to praise the dance troupe. He wrote, "It's nice to relive "Dhakka Laga Bukka" through such a powerful performance. All the best @kingsunitedcrew and #WorldofDance."
