German Ambassador to India stars in Bollywood video

"Ambassador, with these dance moves, you're really spoiling us!"

Is Michael Steiner the coolest international diplomat in the world?

The 65-year-old German Ambassador to India has found a novel way of ingratiating himself to his host country – by starring in his own Bollywood video.

Along with his wife, Eliese, and Salman Khurshid, the former Foreign Minister of India, Steiner reenacts a scene-by-scene remake of Kal Ho Naa Ho, a hit song from the film of the same name.

And it’s no p*ss-take parody either, as the Ambassador tackles each melodramatic scene with total conviction. From wooing the object of his affections to seemingly dying at the end.

Ferrero Rocher eat your heart out…
