Workout with Slumdog Millionaire

0209millionairedance.jpg Everyone's been bit with the Bollywood bug in the wake of Slumdog Millionaire's Oscar wins. The Daily News reports on Sarina Jain's Masala Bhangra workout classes (which are held at various gyms throughout the city)—it isn't new, but it unsurprisingly has a lot of new students (attendance doubling since the movie started getting buzz). While it won't leave you looking like Freida Pinto, it will burn at least 500 calories, even if you don't do it gracefully. Practice at home (video) before doing this in public. And if Slumdog wasn't your thing, skip to 6:13 in this video for the more obscure The Reader dance.
