Congress veteran and former Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah is undoubtedly at the age of 73 but his enthusiasm can beat any youth. At a temple festival in Mysore, she danced to the folk dance Veera Kunitha in her native village Siddarmanhundi. A video of this was shared by his son and Congress MLA from Varuna Yatindra Siddaramaiah. At present, this video is becoming very viral on social media.
The video shows how 73-year-old Siddaramaiah danced to please Lord Siddarameshwar. According to a report, Congress Legislature Party leader Siddaramaiah was named after the temple god and took training in this dance form in his childhood. His son Yatindra says that the Siddarameshwar temple festival takes place once in three years. But it was not organized for the last six years. Siddaramaiah says that when he was the Deputy CM and CM, he came to the village. Now he has come here again.
The special thing is that Siddaramaiah made headlines in 2010 by dancing during the Congress Party’s ‘Bellary Chalo’ padyatra against illegal mining in Karnataka. After this padyatra, he became the Chief Minister of the state in 2013. Siddaramaiah says that he is a patient of sugar. Otherwise, show more enthusiasm. He has forgotten the lyrics of the song but listening to the beat of the song, his feet automatically started shaking.
