It was a pleasant surprise when we saw him shake a leg a few years ago in the celebrity dance reality show, Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa

He wasn’t the best dancer on the show but his charming personality compensated for his lack of dancing skills. He got eliminated in a few weeks but it was still a pleasure to watch him.

Turns out, Sanjeev Kapoor is a man of many talents and cooking is just one of them. He recently uploaded a couple of videos where he’s playing the drums!

Yes, you read that right! Sanjeev Kapoor plays drums. He, along with his team of chefs, plays covers of old Hindi songs and Sanjeev totally slays with the drumsticks. Whenever the chefs decide to take a break from the kitchen, this is how they unwind. 

Well, looks like Sanjeev Kapoor embodies the phrase ‘haathon mei jaadu’ perfectly.

Watch him play ‘Humein tumse pyaar kitna’ here:

And ‘Rim Jhim Gire Sawan‘ with his band in this video:

Certainly a man of many talents!
