Golden Boy Neeraj Chopra is back to the country after his historic win at the Olympics, and newfound stardom has hit him like a tonne of bricks, whether he wants it or not. News channels, tabloids, publications - everyone wants a piece of him, in whatever form they can manage. Right from questions about his marriage to prospective girlfriends, no topic seems to be off the table, but what is admirable is the quiet confidence with which he has been handling it all.

Twitter is ablaze with the 'Neeraj craze' like never before, and in the midst of it all, someone has gone ahead and unearthed an old video of Neeraj Chopra dancing to the iconic song 'Sajan Mere Satrangiya' by Daler Mehndi. The video looks like it's from a lit, no holds barred evening 'desi party', the ones that are always fun. Take a look.
