Drake’s latest track ‘In My Feelings’ has taken the Internet by storm, but maybe not entirely because of the song though. The groovy number, which first had Instagram star Shiggy dancing to the song on a street, became a viral sensation with millions around the world, including celebrities, coming up with their own versions. Using #KikiChallenge, even animals were filmed in rather hilarious renditions.

The viral challenge, where people are filmed dancing on the street from a moving vehicle, has got a great response from Indians trying out their own version. But while they’re at it, many people on Twitter are claiming Indian cinemas started this way before Kiki Challenge became a viral fad. From Sholay to Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge (DDLJ), people are sharing instances where the challenge might have ‘taken inspiration from’. Remember the famous scene where Kajol runs to get on to the train with Shah Rukh Khan? Yes, that’s one of the memes.
