Instagram Head Adam Mosseri brought infectious energy to the Meta India offices in Mumbai, dancing alongside popular Indian content creators and winning hearts in the process. His surprise participation in a Bollywood dance session and his warm cultural interaction with actor Shraddha Kapoor have made waves across the internet.
During a creator conference hosted at Meta’s Mumbai office, Mosseri spontaneously joined creators for a fun group dance to the Bollywood hit “Jhumka Gira Re” from Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. The track, famously picturised on Alia Bhatt, had the room buzzing. Initially hesitant, Mosseri watched the moves carefully and soon jumped right in, syncing impressively with the beat. His natural rhythm and enthusiasm drew applause from creators and attendees alike.

The light-hearted moment was captured by content creator Cyrus Dhabhar, who posted the viral video with a cheerful caption: “Spent the morning with @instagram’s big chief – @mosseri at the @meta offices in Bombay! The man learns quick and bust a move!”
But that wasn’t the only cultural moment. Just days earlier, at the Waves Summit 2025, Mosseri was welcomed on stage by Bollywood star Shraddha Kapoor with a plate of homemade Puran Poli, a traditional Maharashtrian dessert. “You’ve been eating at fancy places, but I want you to try this,” she said warmly. This gesture showcased the deeply rooted hospitality of Indian culture and highlighted a genuine exchange between tech and tradition.
Both moments—Mosseri dancing and sampling local cuisine—struck a chord with Indian audiences. They showcased the Instagram CEO not just as a tech leader, but someone willing to embrace and celebrate cultural diversity with authenticity.
These instances are not just great PR—they are reminders of how global tech leaders can connect with local communities beyond algorithms and updates. Mosseri’s trip to India wasn’t just business as usual—it was a dance of cultures, quite literally.
