A dancer has been shot dead on stage at work when it's been reported that some drunk guests became angry that they could not join in - and opened fire .

Kulwinder Kaur was dancing at a wedding and her husband has since said that she was three months pregnant.

Four people have since been arrested for the murder of the 25-year-old and remain in custody after shocking footage of the attack was posted online and went viral.

Following the event in Bathinda in the Punjab state in Northern India, those arrested include the Shiromani Akali Dal - the Sikhism-centric political party - leader Lucky Goyal and his friend Sanjay Goyal.

Two others have not yet been named.

In the footage, a group of woman are seen dancing on the stage when a man appears beneath them on the dancefloor.

Holding a shotgun aloft, he fires it at almost point blank range.

We have cut the video there, but following the gunshot, the woman falls to the floor as other guests cower.

The young woman's husband, named as Rajinder Singh, claimed she was three months pregnant when she was killed.

He stated that a few drunk men tried to get on stage to dance with the girls but they were refused by stage management.

Singh claimed they grew frustrated by this and fired a gun out of anger, with a bullet hitting his wife and killing her instantly.

Police Senior Superintendent Swapan Sharma said: "Both weapons found by officers belonged to Sanjay Goyal, but Lucky was holding the 0.32 bore revolver, as per the video clipping which we have seen.

"Lucky fired in the air while trying to go on stage.

"Sanjay Goyal was also near the stage holding his 0.12 gun. Both weapons have been recovered."
