#repost @suresh_kingsunited Finally, we can say India 🇮🇳 is on Top in Dancing and history has been created which will be remembered and cherished forever! 🦁⚔️ Tonight, is the night which each and every Indian is going to remember for life and feel proud seeing the Indian Flag flying high with the perfect score for our stellar performance. 100 100 100! It was the best experience of our life so far. The journey of local dancers from the small gully of vasai Nallasopara to the WORLD CHAMPIONS was really challenging filled with never ending hard work and dedication. I am really happy for all my team members as everyone dreamt of having their own houses since long time and finally after winning 1 Million Dollar, they will be able to convert those dreams in reality now. We have struggled a lot and it took more then 10 years of hardwrk and teamwork for us to become the top Dancers in the entire world. I am thankful to my team for having faith in me and being with me for the past so many years because this wouldn’t have been possible without them. I feel like I have got the best team so here we are “WORLD CHAMPIONS” 🏆 . . . #TheKings #KingsUnited #worldofdance #worldofdance3 #worldchampions #nbcworldofdance #Wod #wod3 #Wodwinner @nbcworldofdance @jlo @neyo @derekhough

10 years of struggle, hard work, pain, sleepless nights, fear, sacrifices has been paid off finally! Yesterday’s hard work resulted in today’s victory!!!! With no time in hand, we had to make decision whether to participate or not and with just 10 days before the travel date, we cleared our travel documents and proceeded with our participation in WOD3 . Who knew that a group from India would reach the finals and emerge with the title of WORLD CHAMPIONS. But, we did it and converted our dream into reality with hard work and determination. It seems so surreal for us today and we are still unable to convince ourself that yes , We made it. We are so overwhelmed with the response We received through out the show . This makes us work even more harder for our future dreams. Special Thanks to our Choreogrpher @suresh_kingsunited 🙏🏻👑⚔️🛡🦁 The Team 👇 @karthik_thekings @ritesh_the_kings @shijin_thekings @chandanacharya @mohanpandey @sunnychatterjeey @pavankingsunited @prem_thekings @hardik.rawat @charles_thekings @pratik_thekings @rajadas_thekings @akshay_thekings @naidu_thekings @hritikkingsunited . . . . . #Thekings #Wod #WorldChampions #Wod3 #Worldofdance #Worldofdance3 #KingsUnited #thekingswod
