Right after it was first dropped at the Vh1 Supersonic Arcade in Mumbai last December, ‘Lean On‘ by Major Lazer & DJ Snake feat. MØ was one of the songs to look forward to this year. The teaser of the official video last week got everyone’s eyeballs with Diplo & Co. starring in kurtas and many a Indian scenarios.
The video was shot in parts of Mumbai when the trio came down to India for their tour with Vh1 Supersonic Arcade. From kurtas to lazy Bollywood steps this video captures the spice of India in all its state.
“India is special and its beauty absolutely humbled me. When we toured there as Major Lazer, it was mind blowing to see our fan-base and we wanted to incorporate the attitude and positive vibes into our video and just do something that embodies the essence of Major Lazer. Major Lazer has always been a culture mashup and to us, India feels like some kind of special creature with one foot in history and one firmly in the future. The experience is something we’ll never forget.“
